Given bless and power

Verse 1

Ancient night fallen far, frightened faces in the square

Steel in hand, my breath burning air

Shadow things crawl, crawl out from cracks

Blade won’t break the black

War in my veins, war from above

Chains and chill, heal me, unseen love

Just him, just me – stand frozen as the silence grows

His eyes are deep wells, burning with old woes

One, two, ten – teeth like hunger, claws for hands

Pray, I plant my feet, I make my stand

Chorus

Angel, descend now, light pierces the gloom

Circle of vision, heart ready to bloom

Shape of the cross, center of stone

We light the darkness, destroy the unknown

Post-Chorus

Shatter the shade

Bless me with fire

Shatter the shade

Lift me higher

Verse 2

Sword splits smoke, clash and call

Bones bite back – shadows fall

Angel roars loud, arms open wide

Tongue of old thunder, nowhere to hide

Blessings rain down, drilling the ground

Man clutching hope, safety is found

I see him, I see his battered soul

Ancient wounds, darkness stole

He falls, I catch, my fingers spark

Aura cracks, fills the park

Healed in the halo, power surges through skin

New day dawns, let the holy in

Chorus

Angel, descend now, light pierces the gloom

Circle of vision, heart ready to bloom

Shape of the cross, center of stone

We light the darkness, destroy the unknown

Post-Chorus

Shatter the shade

Bless me with fire

Shatter the shade

Lift me higher

Bridge

In the center, the cross, the flame, the end

Black legions crumble, they twist, they bend

He gives, I breathe in, gold glowing gift

Aura ascends, spirits lift

Verse 3

Still on the ground, barely believe

I gasp bright air, no time to grieve

He nods, unheard words he speaks

Light in his palm, power that leaks

He blesses my bones, blood running clean

No fear, no fury, sacred serene

Town sighs, peace like never before

Silent, we remember the war

Chorus

Angel, descend now, light pierces the gloom

Circle of vision, heart ready to bloom

Shape of the cross, center of stone

We light the darkness, destroy the unknown

Post-Chorus

Shatter the shade

Bless me with fire

Shatter the shade

Lift me higher
