Song Lyrics

Verse:
Subject to me the spirits surround,
I utter His name and they must submit;
I am in war; battle, no sound;
Yet it’s for naught, I must admit;

O’er these great things I’ll not rejoice;
There’s much greater things in my life;
For I had once heeded the Voice,
The One, for me, Who faced death’s strife;

Chorus:
My own name is writ in heaven;
My life’s caught in the folds o’ Your robe,
For You have removed all my leaven,
Making Yourself my eternal abode;

My own name is on Your lips,
Bearing truth I’m on Your heart;
Salvation I’ve drunk, each glorious sip,
Convicted of love that’ll ne’er part;

Verse:
Subject to You, for You surround,
I love Your Name, and must submit;
Peace comes in; Voice with no sound;
Yea, for much, I’ll gladly admit;

This one great thing I will rejoice,
You are so great in my life;
Thank the Lord, I heard Your Voice,
And how, for me, You faced the Strife;

Bridge:
Hear me all, you darkened knights;
You have lost me, once found by Him;
I walk and live by Kingdom right,
For He has saved me from my sin;
By grace, I am a prince of the realm,
Ambassador to these dusty plains;
I follow the One o’er time’s helm,
For I’ve released my selfish reins;

Repeat Chorus



"Do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rather rejoice because your names are written in heaven." —Luke 10:20

(Excuse me; I'm going off to rejoice!)
