There's a battle going on through the ages
A war between darkness and light
And though some may ignore it, it still rages
It's time we stand up and fight
He that winneth souls is wise
Going behind the enemy lines
Leading the captives home to Christ
Bless the one who shines His light
And leads the lost ones through the night
He that winneth souls is wise
He that winneth souls is wise
The weapons of our warfare are not carnal
But we are mighty through prayer
Let us tear down the strongholds of Satan
We must show the world we care
He that winneth souls is wise
Going behind the enemy lines
Leading the captives home to Christ
Bless the one who shines His light
And leads the lost ones through the night
He that winneth souls is wise
He that winneth souls is wise
Jesus is the victor of the ages
And as His warriors, we must go
If we don't get the message to the captives
Then tell me how will they know
He that winneth souls is wise
Going behind the enemy lines
Leading the captives home to Christ
Bless the one who shines His light
And leads the lost ones through the night
He that winneth souls is wise
He that winneth souls is wise
And leads the lost ones through the night
He that winneth souls is wise
He that winneth souls is wise
Bless the one who leads the lost ones through the night
