weapon of prayer

in that land across the sea

there's a job for you and me

though our presence there may not be found

we must station there on the battle lines and pray

we must never lay our weapon down

we don't have to be a soldier in a uniform

to be of service over there

while the boys so bravely stand with their weapons made by hand

let us trust and use the weapons of prayer

many thousand miles away

someone sheds their blood today

with a love so true and brave

they've gone

to a war that's yours and mine

let us join the battle line

with a weapon that will save our home

we don't have to be a soldier in a uniform

to be of service over there

while the boys so bravely stand with their weapons made by hand

let us trust and use the weapon of prayer

when the planes and tanks and guns have done all that they can do

and the mighty bombs have rained and fell

till the fearful hand above holds the weapon made of love

and against him none on earth prevail

we don't have to be a soldier in a uniform

to be of service over there

while the boys so bravely stand with their weapons made by hand

let us trust and use the weapon of prayer

let us trust and use the weapon of prayer
