What Will The Armies Take Away?

ARMIES

Tonight, All the stars could fall

Tonight, Will break the chains off us all

Left at one last dance-Nothing here to lose

I wanna light the flame-Fire that’s barely burning in you

Give this dance a chance and if

Tonite I hold you tight-And break down the walls

Kiss your face soft-And open up gates to your soul

Don't lose it all-Wondering when this siege on time ends

And then-What will the armies take away?

Tonite, Life's soldiers could halt

Tonite, Our inner wars will stop

When I take hold your hand-Roses in moonlite entwine

This moment immortal-Cause in us it never dies

And this dance is a tower-Our love will reign safe here forever

These dreams roll on unhindered-And life's soldiers never arrive

To steal them by surprise-When we give our fears up to the fire

When we give it all, all we'll ever need to smile-Is in tonite

Tonite I hold you tight-And break down the walls

Kiss your face soft Open up gates to your soul

Don't lose it all Wondering when this siege on time ends

And then

What will the armies take away?

Tomorrow, Don't you let this go

When our feet hit the ground

God turns back his face-Or time erases our smiles

Tomorrow, Don't you let this go

When roses give way to thorns Life's armies march on our tower

Yeah we may lose the war, But you won't fight this alone

Don't lose it all Wondering when this siege on time ends

And then

What will the armies take away?

Prayer for those the Armies have come Against

Creator and Sustainer of our Hearts

We come before you asking for a Big Love

We ask for a Love without Fig Leaves like Adam and Eve

We ask for a Love Larger than our Fears

We ask for a Love that keeps the Fire when others have fallen to Ash

We ask for the Walls to come done and never rise Again

We ask for the Hope to wave like a Flag and never Fall

We ask for a Love that grows and gains Ground

A Love that lets us Embrace our Beloved but also our Neighbor and our Enemy

We ask for a Love that brings not only Joy but also Change

We ask for that Banner over us to be Love and to be Raised

“So Jacob worked for Rachel seven years, yet in his eyes it was like a few days, 

because of his love for her.” Genesis 29:20 Tree of Life Version
