Armed and Dangerous - Petra

This used to be a distant call

Thought to be for some but never all

Now our wounded lay on every side

Now this call to arms can’t be denied

The enemy will tremble

As young and old assemble

A mighty army up in arms

Armed and dangerous

God’s enemies will scatter

Armed and dangerous

We’ll see the darkness shatter

His armor is worth its weight

No weapon can penetrate

Armed and dangerous

We’re ready to storm the gate

We’re not so tough on our own

Not one can even stand all alone

Just a rag tag army at its best

We sometimes even fail the smallest test

But through this tribulation

There comes a transformation

We don the armor of our King

Armed and dangerous

God’s enemies will scatter

Armed and dangerous

We’ll see the darkness shatter

His armor is worth its weight

No weapon can penetrate

Armed and dangerous

We’re ready to storm the gate

Stand up against the flood

Stand covered by His blood

We are the standard He has raised

Stand earnestly contend

Stand to the very end

We’ve only just begun to fight

Armed and dangerous

God’s enemies will scatter

Armed and dangerous

We’ll see the darkness shatter

His armor is worth its weight

No weapon can penetrate

Armed and dangerous

We’re ready to storm the gate, storm the gate
