A cover version was done by Petra, on their "Petra Praise: The Rock Cries Out" in 1989.
We decided to redo this classic, and give it a Macrofish style sound... a cross between heavy metal, worship, and a bit of good old fashioned rock and roll.
Lyrics
In heavenly armor we'll enter the land,
The battle belongs to the Lord.
No weapon that's fashioned against us will stand,
The battle belongs to the Lord!
We sing glory, honor,
power, and strength to the Lord.
We sing glory, honor,
Power, and strength to the Lord
To the Lord
When the power of darkness comes in like a flood,
The battle belongs to the Lord!
He's raised up a standard, the power of His blood,
The battle belongs to the Lord!
We sing glory, honor,
power, and strength to the Lord.
We sing glory, honor,
Power, and strength to the Lord
When your enemy presses in hard do not fear,
The battle belongs to the Lord!
Take courage, my friend, your redemption is near,
The battle belongs to the Lord!
