The Hellish Fiends Creeps On the Ground

LXXX The war is won, the battles just begun The hellish fiends with stealth creeps on the ground Yet feigns so high and bright just as the sun That will to have their souls in darkness bound Then sounds a roar to melt our hearts in grief To make us weep in shame and mock our tears By faithless fears that turn to disbelief Our precious life to spend in wasted years I hear a mighty cry, “thus saith the Lord” Thy armor wear and bear the shield of faith Unsheath thy sword, it is God’s holy word Defeat the horde of evil filled with hate I pray thee not thyself alone assail That we might ‘gainst the gates of hell prevail
