Chumbawamba - Walking Into Battle With The Lord Lyrics
A new crusade to the Holy Land
An army of men under my command
Fight the good fight here at home
Send those men to kingdom come
Trust my Lord to hold me still
Say 'amen' and shoot to kill
Walking into battle with the Lord
With open arms on Judgement Day
Teach the children how to pray
Faithful, blind, we all believe
I was taught by Adam but I blame it on Eve
All my words in kindness came
Cleanse this world of sin and shame
Walking into battle with the Lord
Holy Father, Mother Tongue
Manna from heaven, right from wrong
Take my place on the witness stand
Trigger fingers, praying hands
When two men meet on the field of war
They both ask 'what are we fighting for?'
And haven't we heard this all before?
Walking into battle with the Lord

Savage song.

wish I wouldn’t have
Love the little double meaning of “walking into battle with the lord”, changing from battling alongside the lord to against him.
wow what a song
Lol, I thought he sings ''I was taught by Adam but I blame it on thee''
My sister's name is Eve, so either way it works for her.
beautiful and thought provoking plus just voices very artful
"I was taught by Adam, but I blame it on Eve" wow damn
The wonderful John Jones of Oysterband :-)
Thought i recognized that voice, My word it is! :)
MERAVIGLIOSA!!!!
What a beautiful song with a very deep and dark message to it. Love it.
The first time I heard this on the local college station I was a bit confused. Deeper listening revealed a wonderful song to me. "When two men meet on the field of war they both ask what are we fighting for. This is what I always heard in my head whenever people say "put on the armor of christ"
my friend showed me this song last night and i can't bring myself to forget about it. gorgeous.
Brilliant!
Wow! Great harmonies and powerful message. "Trust my lord to hold me still... say amen and shoot to kill... " I <3 you Chumbawamba.
Beautiful, thank you for sharing this. <3 Many blessings to you and yours.
Gorgeous.
