At the Edge

To Sarah--

Finally,You have come this far
To the edge of a new world.

New life.
New hope.
New future.

Territory.
Not for the weak of heart.
Put on your fightin’ suit.

It is time for the end of mediocre living
Exchange your heavy heart
For trust in the Lord.

Resting with waiting
Has come to an end.

Arise and shine for your light has come.
The glory of the Lord rises on you.

A promise given.
A promise kept.

Why is life worth living?
Romance.
Adventure.

Sitting on the couch with Him
You overcame.
Learning it is Christ who will carry your victories.

Raise the banner high.

He is at work
So we can rest.
Always rest.
Fully rest.

Now. (Selah)

Put on your victory suit.
It is time to conquer and defeat.
The enemy is at your feet.

Worship God
With the captain of the host of the Lord.
You are standing now on holy ground.

This battle is not for the faint of heart.
But God has given you the victory.
Go now at His command.

Do you see what I can see?
The enemy trembling.
(God is for you.)

Your battle is not against flesh and blood
Have no fear.
Be strong, my dear.

God is stronger.
Fiercer in His justice.
Seething in His fury.

Suddenly…
The enemy is at His mercy.

Have no fear.
Stand firm, my dear.
