[Intro]
Spurs on the floorboards
Bible in the saddlebag
Fire in our eyes, Lord
We ain’t ever ridin’ back (nah)
[Verse 1]
Boots in the dirt, I’m laced up, heart steady
Whole lot of giants in the way, but we ready
Armor on shine when the sun come up
Devil wanna draw, but he run from us
Yeah, I been down in the canyon, afraid
Now I ride high ‘cause the Lamb done paid
Whip that fear like dust off the coat
Got Your name on my tongue, Your word in my throat
I ain’t ridin’ for the gold or the glory
I’m ridin’ ‘cause You rewrote my story
Whole posse won from the blood You shed
You the King on the white horse, breakin’ that dread (yeah)
[Chorus]
We ride at dawn
When the sky’s still pale and quiet
We ride at dawn
Hear the thunder, feel it rising
Horses pawing, hearts all drawn
Saddles creak, but our fear is gone
With Jesus leading, we ride at dawn
We ride, we ride at dawn (hey!)
[Verse 2]
Campfire low, but my faith still glow
Got scars on my soul where the cold wind blow
You took that shame, now I stand up straight
New sheriff in my heart, yeah, You cleaned my slate
I hear chains break when You call my name
Whole dark valley gotta bow to Your flame
Got my brothers on the left, my sisters on the right
We ain’t ridin’ out for fame, we just ridin’ in the light
When the whistle of the fear wind howl
I just grip that truth, let the doubt fall out
If the arrows fly, we gon’ lift that shield
‘Cause the battle ain’t ours, it’s already sealed (yeah, yeah)
[Chorus]
We ride at dawn
When the sky’s still pale and quiet
We ride at dawn
Hear the thunder, feel it rising
Horses pawing, hearts all drawn
Saddles creak, but our fear is gone
With Jesus leading, we ride at dawn
We ride, we ride at dawn
[Bridge]
[Beat drops to sparse guitar and low 808]
Hand on the reins, hand on the Word (on the Word)
Follow Your voice, every whisper heard
If You say “go,” then I won’t look back
If You say “stay,” I’ll hold this track
From the cross to the grave, to the empty stone
You rode out first so we don’t ride alone (never)
When the trumpet sound, when the dark all gone
You gon’ call our names, we gon’ sing this song (yeah)
[Chorus]
We ride at dawn
When the sky’s still pale and quiet
We ride at dawn
Hear the thunder, feel it rising
Horses pawing, hearts all drawn
Saddles creak, but our fear is gone
With Jesus leading, we ride at dawn
We ride, we ride at dawn (oh)
With Jesus leading, we ride at dawn
We ride, we ride at dawn
