Song Meaning
A besieged camp waits through the night in Tommee Profitt's "Tomorrow We Fight," where enemies gather in the fog wearing iron masks and the singer can only rest before the conflict resumes. The song's central image is light breaking against that darkness — bright enough to justify one night of sleep before the battle. After the violence, the tone shifts: hope becomes a fire to keep warm, and the lines about children of anger and a forgotten Eden suggest a people who have lost their way but are still waiting for the hour when the fighting ends. The repeated "wait for the war" and the closing chant of the title turn the song into something closer to a vigil than a battle cry, holding tension between dread and endurance. There's little explicit gospel language here, but the structure — darkness, a promised light, a battle already decided — carries a devotional weight, and the fire that warms after the war reads as a quiet image of grace sustaining people through what they cannot yet see resolved.

Deep in the forest under the fog
Armies surround us, waiting for dark
Wearing their iron masks like a shield
I know they're coming I know they're here
Oh that light, oh, is bright
Sleep for today, but tomorrow we fight
Tomorrow we fight
Tomorrow we fight
Cold in the violence
After the war
Hope is a fire to keep us warm
Children of anger
Eden's forgot
Waiting for the hour
The battle is done
Oh that light, oh, is bright
Sleep for today, but tomorrow we fight
Tomorrow we fight
Tomorrow we fight
Wait for the war
Wait for the war
Tomorrow we fight
Tomorrow we fight
Tomorrow we fight
Tomorrow we fight
