Song Lyrics

"Contend For The Faith"

by Idle Cure
Album: 2nd Avenue

Many have come to see the light, many just walk away,
Of the ones who choose to fight, their hope is not in vain,
Some vow to tear the gospel down, try and shape it to their need,
And, all the while, your voice cries out to me, 'cause they don't understand,
Still, love endures time and again, that we may believe.

Contend for the faith,
Contend for the truth,
Thy word is the way, my strength lies in you.

The time has come; the harvest is at hand, but the labourers are few,
How will they know and ever understand the truth'
The choice is up to you and I,
Still, love endures time and again, that we may believe.

Contend for the faith, and show them the way,
Contend for the truth, and show them the light,
Thy word is the way, my strength lies in you.

There's a love beyond compare that the world is unaware,
In the search to find the truth, God sends them me and you.

Thy word is the way, my strength lies in you,
Contend for the faith, and show them the way,
Contend for the truth, and show them the light.

And show them the way,
And show them the light.
