Lyrics
(Verse 1)
The city streets are fading fast, the darkness starts to rise
A leather jacket, denim heart, reflected in her eyes
She holds the phone, a fragile link to sanity and grace
While shadows gather at her feet, a smile on every face
They whisper sweet temptations, promises of what could be
But standing silent at her back, a figure she can't see.
(Chorus)
Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature
That's the sword the angel holds, the battle line he traces
Sexual immorality, impurity, lust and evil desire
Greed, which is idolatry, fueling the raging fire
It’s the war within the soul, the choice in every glance
Walking through the hell on Earth, in faith's defiant stance.
(Verse 2)
The demons snarl and reach for her, their hunger in their gaze
They offer comfort in the dark, through life’s confusing maze
But on her right, a golden light, a shield of blinding white
The feathered wings spread wide and strong, guarding her through the night
His armor shines with purpose, his focus sharp and true
He won't fight for her, but with her, until the morning through.
(Chorus)
Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature
That's the sword the angel holds, the battle line he traces
Sexual immorality, impurity, lust and evil desire
Greed, which is idolatry, fueling the raging fire
It’s the war within the soul, the choice in every glance
Walking through the hell on Earth, in faith's defiant stance.
(Bridge)
The weight of Colossians, a heavy, holy plea
To choose the higher ground today, to finally break free
It’s not the devils she must beat, they only point the way
The real fight is the one she fights inside her heart each day.
(Colossians 3:5, New Message)
(Guitar Solo - A mix of power and hopeful melody)
(Chorus)
Put to death, therefore, whatever belongs to your earthly nature
That's the sword the angel holds, the battle line he traces
Sexual immorality, impurity, lust and evil desire
Greed, which is idolatry, fueling the raging fire
It’s the war within the soul, the choice in every glance
Walking through the hell on Earth, in faith's defiant stance.
(Outro)
She walks on, head held high, the phone call done, the choice is made.
The angel follows every step, the promise will not fade.
(Put to death... put to death...)
The earthly nature... is slain.
