[Intro – low, steady drum feel]
Heavenly Father…
I rise…
By Your grace
⸻
[Verse 1]
I wake by grace, I stand alive
Breath in my lungs, You sustain my life
Another day, another call
To walk in purpose through it all
I lay it down, my plans, my will
Every thought, I surrender still
Go before me, make the way
Order every step today
⸻
[Pre-Chorus – building]
Higher than my own understanding
You are leading, You are commanding
⸻
[Chorus – BATTLE DECLARATION]
Go before me, prepare the way
Order my steps today
I will walk in purpose, I will not fear
You are with me, You are here
No weapon formed against me will stand (Isaiah 54:17)
I am covered by Your hand
Every plan not from You falls
I stand strong, I will not fall
⸻
[Verse 2]
Fill this day with Your presence now
Let Your peace silence every doubt
Fear and confusion lose their sound
Your truth is what I’m standing on
When my mind feels heavy, bring me light
When I’m weary, give me life
When my faith feels small inside
Strengthen me, be my guide
⸻
[Pre-Chorus]
You are my clarity in chaos
You are my strength when I feel lost
⸻
[Chorus – BATTLE DECLARATION]
Go before me, prepare the way
Order my steps today
I will walk in purpose, I will not fear
You are with me, You are here
No weapon formed against me will stand
I am covered by Your hand
Every plan not from You falls
I stand strong, I will not fall
⸻
[Bridge – marching / chant]
Guard my heart
Guard my mind
Strength in body
Spirit aligned
Right doors open
Wrong ones close
You decide
I will go
Right place
Right time
Right people
All aligned
⸻
[Breakdown – strong, rhythmic hits]
Patience when I’m pressed
Humility when I’m blessed
Courage in the test
I will give my best
Grace in how I speak
Kindness when I’m weak
Integrity I keep
Every step I take
⸻
[Bridge 2 – lifted, powerful]
Bless the work of my hands today
Let it matter, let it stay
Every effort, every move
Let it bring me closer to You
⸻
[Final Chorus – full anthem]
Go before me, prepare the way
Order my steps today
I will walk in purpose, I will not fear
You are with me, You are here
No weapon formed against me will stand
I am covered by Your hand
Every plan not from You falls
I stand strong, I will not fall
⸻
[Outro – strong, grounded]
Faith over fear
Hope over worry
Love over anger
You are with me
Within me
Surrounding me
I rise…
Amen
