I wrote this song with inspiration from a dream I had one night, about a humble soldier who watched the entire army of his people get destroyed by an army of darkness. When the enemies saw him on the ground and believed him to be dead with the others, he realized it was up to him to save the kingdom by stealth and strategy where the numbers in the army had failed. I included some of these lyrics in my book, "Witness in the Dark." Now you can hear what they were singing. Verse 1: Lord, I was so very young, had no clue what I'd just begun. Chose the road of change and trial, and I followed you as a child. You gave me faith to believe in the things I couldn't see. "Soon the war will be over and we will be free! Keep on fighting, brave soldiers, your eyes are on the King!" I was so naive. But You kept on saying I'd have to be strong And I had no idea why, but still I went on. With no earthly protection, went on to perfection, cuz Something kept bidding me go on. Verse 2: No, this hasn't been easy. What's been happening to me? From a child to a man - I can hardly understand. It's been a challenge for me to take what you were whispering: "When you're lacking in something, I don't want you to hide. Don't find strength in another - develop it inside." To you alone I cried, saying, "Show me how to be complete in you. For this war to be won, what would you have me do? Lord, the warriors are falling. If this is your calling - If nobody's winning, then it's on. Verse 3: I've been wrestling with you like I never thought I'd need to. You have me face my own self, as I follow you through hell. You are my challenge and my strength, both my trial and my faith. Cast out every distraction! I want to hear your call. I've no reason to fight if I can't give it my all. Let nothing be my fall. I have been learning to fight like a pro, And I know you will teach me all I need to know. Though it seems I'm mistaken and all have forsaken me - Something still bids me to go on. Something still bids me to go on. Written March 10th-11th, 2014
