Love is War
Words and Music by Joel Houston
VERSE 1:
In Your justice and Your mercy
Heaven walked the broken road
Here to fight this sinner’s battle
Here to make my fall Your own
PRE-CHORUS:
Turn my eyes to see Your face
As all my fears surrender
Hold my heart within this grace
Where burden turns to wonder
CHORUS:
I will fight to follow
I will fight for love
To throw my life forever
Into the triumph of the Son
VERSE 2:
Let Your love be my companion
In the war against my pride
Long to break all vain obsession
Till You’re all that I desire
BRIDGE:
And I know Your love has won it all
You took the fall
To embrace my sorrows
I know You took the fight
You came and died but the grave was borrowed
I know You stood again
So I can stand with a life to follow
In the light of Your Name
