Find the Light

As the dust settles on this hollow ground
Listen to the sobbing of broken hearts
Too much for anyone to handle or bare
Tragedy is something none should impart

Walking through the darkened valley
We search for the hope of light
A light for us to see clearly once again
And the strength to stand up and fight

With intense power we go to battle
Against all evil around and in this land
Equipped by the mighty Lord of Lords
In His protection we will firmly stand

Shatter the Shackles

With Jesus at my side I stand tall and fearless
In Him there is a marvelous power I possess
Not by my works, but by His mighty name
It is His power working through me I claim
I declare any evil to flee at this very moment
Get out of my life and stop this torment
In the name of Jesus I break your chains
Run in fear of the Spirit coursing my veins
You cannot hold me, I am a child of the King
You're done, Jesus took your one and only sting
By His finished work on the cross I'm set free
Your shackles can no longer restrain me
They're shattered by the power of the Blood
And washed away by the Spirit's mighty flood
