Our Nation’s At War


By James H. Cagle

Lord, help us see our nation’s at war and we must rise to protect our shores;

Wake us from our contented state and help us to see that the time is late;

That the judgment of our country is coming due if we don’t repent and return to you.

Lord, lead us by Thy Almighty hand, for the enemy of America we must withstand:

The foes of Justice, Truth, and Light; they that would make what’s wrong seem right,

And would tell us that darkness is the same as light, by thy grace and power must be put to flight.

Lord, help us preserve our nation with Truth, to remember again the love of our youth;

While seeking to worship our Savior and King, we left our homeland and took to our wings.

With our freedom we flew across the dark foam, Thy Word as our standard, we began our new home.

We must not forget our father’s faith now, who fought for our liberty and would not bow,

Until the greatest nation in all the earth, for Truth and Righteousness, God brought to birth.

And gave us a heart to be governed by God, to make us a people, “One nation under God.”

But the enemies of Christ from other lands, have joined with their like in our blessed land.

They seek to destroy our nation’s foundation and enact laws to our devastation.

Laws that won’t honor our human rights and will plunge our nation into darkest night.

They will remove our beloved Constitution and start a severe religious persecution.

They cannot do this by power and might, but by making we believe their wrong is right.

While politicians fight for their personal agenda, they’re quietly finalizing their addenda.

They came here to destroy us from within, and hate the Americans whose vote helped them win.

Our freedoms and liberties they do not love, but use them to further their plans thereof.

If their plans are fulfilled we’ll all be slaves, in the “land of the free and the home of the brave.”

Lord, help us see our battles can be won, if every Christian their race would run;

If each, would rise from their bed of ease to find God’s power again on their knees;

For it is the Lord that is on our side, that calls us to revive and resist sin’s tide.

Oh Lord, now help me stand in the gap, where the swords of Truth and Wickedness clap.

Give me the strength I need to prevail.  For the sake of others let me not fail.

I will do my best to make up the hedge.  For your cause, O Lord, my life I now pledge.

For the Soul of America, I will join the fight; I will stand up for Truth and Right;

I will follow the path that is true to God’s Word, till my Savior’s call to come home is heard.

Then may I say, when I kneel in His sight, “For God and Country, I have fought a good fight.”
