Our to Defend
(Gentry/Swan/Siregar)

Verse 1  
Awaken now, lets shape this world that keeps on sleeping
Don't close your eyes and be caught up with the prince of darkness
There's times when we will pull apart, but we're only human
That's when we need to seek His heart, the heart of our nation

Chorus   
We must change this world (change our world),
we know it's ours to defend
Oh we need You Lord, without You we are meaningless
We look at the stars that shine above us,
but we don't chart their course
Only you can turn the earth, but until then we need to
defend Your truth

Verse 2  
Where's our love?  It's lost inside beliefs unfeeling
Confusion reigns, it paints a picture we're believing
Why do we rarely seek His word? We'd rather be fair? No!
We know it's not what He commands, commandments are broken

Repeat Chorus

Bridge   
Lets show that He's our only God, the God of our Fathers
And toil against the waning odds, the fight for the ages

Repeat Chorus
