Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We will bow down to the Lord,
Take up the fight, take up the armor,
We'll take up the sword,
We'll stand with Him.
We'll fight on the beaches,
We'll fight on the streets,
Invincible.
Take up the challenge,
He is calling,
Stand up together,
He is calling,
We will not bow down, no
We will not bow down, no
We will not bow down,
We will not bow down, no
We will not bow down, no
We will not bow to the world.
We will not bow to the world,
We will bow down to the Lord,
Take up the fight, take up the armor,
We'll take up the sword,
We'll stand with Him.
We'll fight on the beaches,
We'll fight on the streets,
Invincible.
Take up the challenge,
He is calling,
Stand up together,
He is calling
We will not bow down, no
We will not bow down, no
We will not bow down,
We will not bow down, no
We will not bow down, no
We will not bow to the world.
Take up the challenge,
He is calling,
Stand up together,
He is calling
We will not bow down, no
We will not bow down, no
We will not bow down,
We will not bow down, no
We will not bow down, no
We will not bow to the world.
We will not bow down, no
We will not bow down, no
We will not bow down,
We will not bow down, no
We will not bow down, no
We will not bow to the world.
We won't bow down.
