[Verse 1]
The Lord's dwelling is among His people
He exalts over us in happy song
The Lord has broken the rod of the wicked
The hour of His judgement has come
You who once laid low the nations
Your yoke of oppression is broken this day
Jehovah has purposed and so it will stand
His hand is outstretched and so we arise
[Chorus]
God of battle
Lord of hosts
We're here, we're your battle axe
A weapon in your hand
God of battle
God of war
We've taken our dominion back
We're shattering the systems of this world
[Verse 2]
We charge through defences
We don't break our ranks
Marching in line we don't swerve from our cause
Like warriors we charge
And we scale over walls
We take back our spear
And reign with Christ
[Bridge]
So rise, rise up O God
Rise, rise up O God
Rise, rise up O God
[Ending]
The accuser of the brethren has been cast down
Stripped of his armor and dethroned
The kingdom of God is now among us
We rejoice
Give him glory, honor, power and praise
We rejoice
Give him glory, honor, power and praise
