My Captain is a Lion

My Captain is a Lion

 

I will fight the good fight

I will stand and never lose my nerve

And will win the raging battle

I will place my faith in the one who deserves it

In the warrior King whom I will serve

 

Oh my captain is a lion

My captain is a King

Over all victorious,

The Lord of everything!

 

The battle is the Lordí‚s and

We cannot help but win

He is Our very reward

For he destroys death and sin.

 

There is victory in Jesus

As in Him we begin

The conquering and the conquest

Of this fallen world weí‚re in

 

He will fulfill His battle plan

Restoring all he sees

 

He dresses us for battle

He equips us for the fight

And we overcome the darkness

As we walk in the light

 

Come and fight the good fight

Our leader brings His victory

He does what He ordains

As he takes for his possession
