Looking at the world today
What do you see
People like you and I
Waiting to be free
Do we even hare a chance
It is hard to tell
With all the fighting and killing
This could br hell
Have you been discouraged
Hard times bringing you down
Fight on! I know you can make it
Prove it to yourself
Working hard just to survive
Can it be done?
We're only trying to make life
Better for our son
All I want is to serve my purpose
Can't get past today
Will there always be someone
Trying to take it away
Have you been discouraged
Hard times bringing you down
Fight on! I know you can make it
Prove it to yourself
Listen now to what I say
To all that have dared
You got to change your ways
I I now that you're scared
Fear not the Lord is with us
He can save us all
My hope lies in his hands
Please hear his call
Have you been discouraged
Hard times bringing you down
Fight on! I know you can make it
Prove it to yourself
The spent of Gideon
Lives in the hearts
Of any determined
Little band.
That refuses to be discouraged
By hopeless odds
And fights on to victory
"By the sword of the Lord
And of Gideon
