Militant Soldier - Spoken Word

Militant Soldier

Written by Christine Lombard ("C. Love")

Dedicated to My Mother, Prophetess Vera E. Paul

CHORUS

I’m a militant soldier, a militant soldier

Listen up cuz I done did told ya’

I’m a militant soldier, a militant soldier

Listen up cuz I done did told ya’

I’m a militant soldier.

I’m takin’ authority

And givin’ God all the glory (3Xs).

I took a warrior’s pact

To stand in the gap

And counter the devil’s attack

So, he betta’ step back.

I’m a militant soldier, a militant soldier

Listen up cuz I done did told ya’

I’m a militant soldier, a militant soldier

Listen up cuz I done did told ya’

I’m a militant soldier.

I’m takin’ authority

And givin’ God all the glory (3Xs).

VERSE

In the days of my youth

I strayed from the Truth

The devil had my mind

I was walkin’ dead and blind.

Many years passed by

I preferred to die

Than continue to lie

In the devil’s pit

I had no power to resist.

I was livin’ a lie,

But Jesus still heard my cry.

God sent a valiant soldier

Cuz I done did told ya

I was powerless to fight,

Lost in the darkness of night

I was in the devil’s grasp

My deliverance was no simple task

He held on tight

With all his might

Till little by little, step by step

The devil’s challenge was met

Finally, the chains were broken

This spoken word is just a token

Of my attitude

Of immeasurable gratitude

For the valiant soldier

Whom I done did told ya

Fought the good fight

To set my life right

Now it’s my turn

To let my heart burn

As I carry my sword and shield

On the battle field

As I fight the good fight

To set others’ lives right.

Now I’m God’s answer to others’ cries.

So, for freedom I must live and not die

CHORUS

I’m a militant soldier, a militant soldier

Listen up cuz I done did told ya’

I’m a militant soldier, a militant soldier

Listen up cuz I done did told ya’

I’m a militant soldier.

I’m takin’ authority

And givin’ God all the glory (3Xs).

I took a warrior’s pact

To stand in the gap

And counter the devil’s attack

So, he betta’ step back.

I’m a militant soldier, a militant soldier

Listen up cuz I done did told ya’

I’m a militant soldier, a militant soldier

Listen up cuz I done did told ya’

I’m a militant soldier.

I’m takin’ authority

And givin’ God all the glory (3Xs).

So Much More - Spoken Word

So Much More

Written January 23, 2011

Salvation is so much

More than a religious crutch

So much more than such and such 

More than sayin’ a sinners prayer

More than blowin’ hot air

More than emotional tears

And hell stained fears

More than cryin’ eyes

And sorrowful lies

More than stuffy noses at the altar

And dippin’ in baptismal waters

More than playin’ church

More than bein’ first

To dig inside your pocket or purse

More than givin’ tithes

Or one’s offerin’ size

More than a shout and dance

More than pomp and circumstance.

Just sit back, relax

Let’s get to the facts

This is a direct attack

On all religious smack.

Oh!  I used to talk a good talk

But my crippled legs couldn’t walk.

I used to speak religious smack

All the while, my mind was wacked

I had no power

So I would simply cower

Behind a religious mask

Pretendin’ was my favorite task.

I searched out religion

Repeatin’ my decision

To search for salvation

At every church station

I could possibly find

While the devil controlled my mind.

Could no one help me?

Could no one see

My painfully dismal reality?

I knew all the right words

Lookin’ back it seems absurd.

Salvation standin’ so close

Yet, I remained a withered up rose

With little life, but a whole lot of thorns

But oh!  How I wanted to be reborn!

So close, yet so far away

So I just continued to pray

The best way I knew how

Even when no one else was around

To hear my lamenting sound.

I did NOT find salvation

In a church denomination

I did NOT find salvation

At ANY church station

I found HIM in the strangest place

Cuz mine was a SERIOUS case

I found Him while seeking His face

And religion was finally erased!

I found HIM in RELATIONSHIP

A long distance trip

Out of a terrible maze

That took YEARS longer than days.

I could not find my own way

Cuz my mind was so prone to stray.

So, God sent me a spiritual Mother

That could PRAY like none other!

Yes, God sent me a mentor

None other than God could have sent her

So that I could finally enter

The Door of Life

That led me out of religious strife.

It took DEEP intercession

For me to taste of Salvation’s blessin’!

Through prayer, the chains were broken.

Finally, from death I awoken

To find True Salvation

And join a Kingdom nation!

Salvation is so much

More than a religious crutch

So much more than such and such

SALVATION IS RELATIONSHIP

A long distance trip

Out of a terrible maze

That often takes YEARS longer than days.

Do you know HE

Who died on a tree?

I intercede

Oh, how I plead

For those who desperately need

To grow

To know

Salvation is so much

More than a religious crutch

So much more than such and such

SALVATION IS RELATIONSHIP

A long distance trip

Out of a terrible maze

That often takes YEARS longer than days.

Salvation is all about JESUS

Not about people pleasers

Salvation is all about JESUS,

The True Salvation Station

Not about church denomination

Cuz Jesus IS the One and Only

Restorer of the lost and lonely

SALVATION IS RELATIONSHIP

A long distance trip

Through a Wonderful DOOR

To Life Eternity and religious sorrow no more!

The Anthem of the Body and Bride of Messiah

The Anthem of the Body and Bride of Messiah

My lips can't seal
Cause my God is real.
My hands be raisin'
As I worship and praise HIm.
For the rest of my days
I'll be amazed
At His wondrous ways!

Yeshua Hamashiach,

I lift Your name higher and higher!

Yeshua Hamashiach,

I lift Your name higher and higher!

I’m the trumpet at Your mouth

Dat’ You blow through,

But I’m a livin’ horn who knows You.

I’ve come just to show You

How much I love You,

And I’m crushing da’ head

Of da’ one who wished dat’ he was You!

I’m the Daughter of Zion

And I now bow to the majestic Lion

Of the tribe of Judah

My Husband, King and Ruler.

I’ve been redeemed by the blood of the Lamb

The Risen Great I AM.

I’m the Body and Bride of Messiah,

And there’s no other name higher

Than Yeshua Hamashiach!

Yeshua Hamashiach,

I lift Your name higher and higher!

Yeshua Hamashiach,

I lift Your name higher and higher!

I’m a livin’ demonstration

To the nations

Marked by the sign of repentance

Awaiting the reentrance

Of the Shekinah glory,

The completion of Your redemption story,

And the rising of Zion

As The majestic Lion

Of the tribe of Judah

My Husband, King and Ruler

Expels every leaven

That opposes the Kingdom of Heaven.

Thy Kingdom come

Thy will be done

On Earth even as it is in Heaven

Expelling every form of leaven.

My lips can't seal
Cause my God is real.
My hands be raisin'
As I worship and praise HIm.
For the rest of my days
I'll be amazed
At His wondrous ways!

Yeshua Hamashiach,

I lift Your name higher and higher!

How much I love You,

And I’m crushing da’ head

Of da’ one who wished dat’ he was You!

I’m the Daughter of Zion

And I now bow to the majestic Lion

Of the tribe of Judah

My Husband, King and Ruler.

I’ve been redeemed by the blood of the Lamb

The Risen Great I AM.

I’m the Body and Bride of Messiah,

And there’s no other name higher

Than Yeshua Hamashiach!
