Lay Down Your Weapon

Three steps forward, two steps back

Throw another problem upon that heaping stack

Gurgling water, your chin barely above surface

How did the pursuit of happiness become such a circus?

---

Stretching and yawning into another day

Same old, same old headed your way

When will it change, where is freedom?

Where is the bright sunny day in your kingdom?

---

Tearing down what you’re constantly trying to build

Maybe it’s the wrong sword you’re trying to wield

Fighting the wrong battles, always in defeat

Maybe you should lay your weapon at God’s feet

---

Living in victory can happen to you

Walk behind God while He fights your way through
