Fight – Fight, with weapons of love -
setting your sights on the One above;
Who’s Perfect Love casts out all fear;
Who’s perfect Grace draws the sinner near; 
                    Who breaketh the bow and snapeth the spear.                    
Who takes the sword out of my hand;
and shatters the hate like grains of sand.

Create O Lord, a pure heart in me; 
          Bring salve for my eyes, that I can see what You see: 
    To embrace the ones that You adore –
For against such Love there is no law! 
    For a greater love none can ever know: 
That we lay down our lives – for friend or for foe. 
   Where do we do this? There’s only one place: 
     At the Cross, at the Cross, the birth place of Grace. 
   How do we do this? One Way – only One: 
Through Jesus Christ, God’s only Son.

So do not consider your life anymore,
Nor set your sights on what was before.
But fix them on things as yet unseen: 
  Give Him your heart – let Him make it clean. 
   No weapon can stand against this Love;
None can destroy what comes from above. 
Freely on us He lavishes grace, 
        That the world through us may see His Face. 
    So consider yourselves dead to sin; 
      Deny yourself, take up your Cross and FOLLOW HIM
