Text: Trouble. Gideon.

Looking at the world today, what do you see?
People like you and I waiting to be free
Do we even have a chance? It is hard to tell
With all this fighting and killing this could be hell

Have you been discouraged
Hard times bringing you down?
Fight on, I know you can make it
Prove it to yourself

Working hard just to survive
Can it be done?
We're only trying to make life better
For our son

All I want is to serve my purpose
Can't get past today
Will there always be someone
Trying to take it away

Have you been discouraged
Hard times bringing you down?
Fight on, I know you can make it
Prove it to yourself

Listen now to what I say to all that have dared
You got to change your ways I know that you're scared
Fear not, the Lord is with us He can save us all
My hope lies in his hands please hear His call

Have you been discouraged
Hard times bringing you down?
Fight on, I know you can make it
Prove it to yourself

The spirit of Gideon lives in the hearts
Of any determined band that refuses to be discouraged
By hopeless odds and fights on to victory
By the sword of the Lord and of Gideon
