Attention, 1-2-3,
Get in step, get in line,
to your positions,
hold the line!
I'm the Captain of the Host,
are you on My side or not?
Time to decide,
ready or not!
Take up your weapons,
all is not lost!
Pray in the Spirit,
count the cost.
Follow me,
don't turn back!
Run to the battle,
there's no lack.
Eyes ahead,
all you'll see,
My Face guiding you
in the glory.
Save the wounded,
Save the lost,
Pick up your cross,
count the cost.
1-2-3, draw your sword.
I'm the Captain, I'm the Lord.
Get in line. To your post.
I'm the Captain of the Host.
It's time to act.
No more delay.
Whom will you serve?
Choose today.
Joshua 5:13-14a Expanded Bible (EXB)
13 Joshua was near Jericho when he looked up and saw a man standing in front of him with a sword in his hand [Ex. 3:2—4:17; Judg. 6:11–23]. Joshua went to him and asked, “Are you ·a friend or an enemy [for us or for our enemies/adversaries]?”
14 The man answered, “·I am neither [No]. I have come as the commander of the Lord’s army [God himself who comes as a warrior; Ex. 15:3].”
Joshua 24:15 Living Bible (TLB)
But if you are unwilling to obey the Lord, then decide today whom you will obey. Will it be the gods of your ancestors beyond the Euphrates or the gods of the Amorites here in this land? But as for me and my family, we will serve the Lord.
