Story behind the song
With the recent uprisings in the middle east, I thought it was now time for me to write a song about the Christian and Jewish martyrs over there and show them the love of the Father through my lyrics. The song is self-explanatory. I'm one of those "Jesus Freaks" that will die for Him no questions asked. I love my life and the people here, but I love Jesus more and the things of this world don't have their grip on me. So listen along if you are a Soldier for Christ who would die for Him on the front lines of Holy war.
Lyrics
DIE FOR CHRIST
I WILL DIE FOR CHRIST
HE IS MY LORD AND SAVIOR
AND IF I DIE TONIGHT
LORD PLEASE SHOW ME FAVOR
I see it on the TV
I read it in the news
There's people dying overseas
For their love for you
There's a great evil
Running around
Killing your people
And gunning us down
They Try to make sure
We can't make a sound
But when it comes to you
We are preaching loud
It only takes one
To spread the good news
More start flocking
In awe of you
You pump me up, Lord
You truly inspire
No amount of water
Can quench your Holy fire
I feel your love, Lord
I feel it pouring down
All it takes is you
To turn the evil around
If this world is doomed
And it drifts even farther
If they want me dead
I'll proudly be a martyr
So I can be in Heaven
With my loving Father
We don't belong here
We are sons and daughters
I WILL DIE FOR CHRIST
HE IS MY LORD AND SAVIOR
AND IF I DIE TONIGHT
LORD PLEASE SHOW ME FAVOR
Babies being killed
In this sick and evil world
Mamas crying over
Their little boys and girls
Many of them, Lord
Are dying for you
I hope these people realize
You're the only truth
Lord I truly pray
You watch over the mamas
Not many cry out
But many scream Jehovah
Curtains close on life
But it's never really over
I want to cling to you
While the world goes under
Soldier for Christ
I'm ready for war
If I die tonight
I'll be with the Lord
I used to be afraid
I shed so many tears
I didn't want to die
But now I have no fear
Don't get it twisted
I still want to live
But nothing on this earth
Can top what God did
I see my time here
As lessons learned
I choose to be with God
And not a place to burn
I WILL DIE FOR CHRIST
HE IS MY LORD AND SAVIOR
AND IF I DIE TONIGHT
LORD PLEASE SHOW ME FAVOR
I WILL DIE FOR CHRIST
HE IS MY LORD AND SAVIOR
AND IF I DIE TONIGHT
LORD PLEASE SHOW ME FAVOR
