Duty to Defend Lyrics

Love your enemies

And those who persecute you

I live my life

A disciple of the Prince of Peace

Call me vile names

Besmirch my reputation

Spit in my face

I will

Turn the other cheek

If you think you can

Do harm to me and mine

You will cross a line

That you cannot come back from

Father forgive them

For they know not what they do

Father forgive me

For I know

Just what must be done

I have a duty to defend

I have a duty to protect

Serving Christ does not amend

I have a duty to defend

I have a duty to defend

I have a duty to protect

Twist Gods word to your own ends

I have a duty to defend

I will submit to persecution

Suffer for my faith

But I will not bow

To the evil reprobate

The Kingdom of God

Belongs to the meek

But if you think I'm a sheep

You will find

A rabid sheepdog

I have a duty to defend

I have a duty to protect

Serving Christ does not amend

I have a duty to defend

I have a duty to defend

I have a duty to protect

Twist Gods word to your own ends

I have a duty to defend

I have a duty to defend

My duty to defend
