Anoint my head anoint my feet
Send your angels raining down
Here on the battle ground
For your glory
We're taking territory
Fighting unseen enemies
Like never before
We're waging war
Anoint my head anoint my feet
Send them raining down
Send your angels raining down
Here on the battle ground
For your glory
For your glory
We're taking
We're taking territory
Fighting unseen enemies
Like never before
Like never before
We're waging war
I'm tired of principalities
Messing with me
(Waging war)
I'm tired of the devil
Stealing from me
(Waging war)
I promise he won't get one more thing
(Waging war)
I'm taking it back
Taking territory
(Waging war)
I'm ready for the battle
I'm ready to win
(Waging war)
My weapon of power
He lives within
(Waging war)
I can't be defeated
The enemy's gotta flee
(Waging war)
I'm taking it back
Taking territory
Going into battle
Be my sword
Be my shield
As we claim the victory
Over the enemy
In your name
You rule and reign
Never being defeated anymore
We're waging war
Be my sword
Be my shield
As we claim the victory
Over the enemy
In your name
You rule and reign
Never being defeated anymore
We're waging war
I'm tired of principalities
Messing with me
(Waging war)
I'm tired of the devil
Stealing from me
(Waging war)
I promise he won't get one more thing
(Waging war)
I'm taking it back
Taking territory
(Waging war)
I'm ready for the battle
I'm ready to win
(Waging war)
My weapon of power
He lives within
(Waging war)
I can't be defeated
The enemy's gotta flee
(Waging war)
I'm taking it back
Taking territory
Going into battle
Send your fire
Send your fire
Fire by night
Cloud by day
A strong tower
Send the latter rain
Lion of Judah
Lord, God,
Mighty in battle
Since you did it back then
We know you'll do it again
Fire by night
Cloud by day
A strong tower
Send the latter rain
Lion of Judah
Lord, God,
Mighty in battle
Since you did it back then
We know you'll do it again
We're going into battle
Lord send you fire
Fire by night
Cloud by day
A strong tower
Send the latter rain
Lion of Judah
Lord, God,
Mighty in battle
Since you did it back then
We know you'll do it again
Send you fire
Fire by night
Cloud by day
A strong tower
Send the latter rain
Lion of Judah
Lord, God,
Mighty in battle
Since you did it back then
We know you'll do it again
So we're waging war
I'm tired of principalities
Messing with me
(Waging war)
Like never before
I'm tired of the devil
Stealing from me
(we're waging war)
I promise he won't get one more thing
I'm taking it back
I'm taking it back
I'm taking it back
Taking territory
(Waging war)
I'm ready for the battle
I'm ready to win
(Waging war)
My weapon of power

The enemy's gotta flee

Taking territory
