Wrote this for someone and thought to share it to everyone
Christian, fight the fight of faith
Dear christian, fight the fight of faith
with the words of King Jesus
To break from sin, plead, struggle, pray,
trusting God's word to free us,
Our salvation took dear Jesus' life,
this price was so tremendous
Let us praise God for his mercy
and his gift of righteousness
With every power of being strive
for the victory in Jesus
And overcome the world by faith
for God's word saves and keeps us
We can overcome our sins
if we appropriate God's grace
Gain the vict'ry over self
by faith in Jesus righteousness
Now contemplate salvations cost;
see the great love of Jesus,
The love of God subdues our sinful
desires that enslave us
Jesus' love upon the cross works
in our hearts submissiveness
for our wills are taken captive
and will do his righteousness
Our mighty helper's nigh to aid
the most erring and sinful.
Behold your God! Despair no more
Be courageous and faithful!
We're assured of reaching heaven
If in christ we abide
With the shield of faith, advance with courage
in him fortified.
