1.

Prophets of God lift to heaven their sight.
Fire burns with might! Fire burns with might!
All that is not of God’s Spirit is doomed—
Quickly consumed! Quickly consumed!

Chorus:

Fire blazes up in the darkness of night.
Prophets of God now with fervency fight,
Bringing to light Satan’s lies and deceit,
Him to defeat! Him to defeat!

2.

Prophets of God use the Sword and are skilled.
They’re Spirit-filled! They’re Spirit-filled!
All worldly spirits they firmly withstand,
Breaking each band! Breaking each band!

3.

Prophets of God ’gainst the evil contend.
Look up, my friend! Look up, my friend!
These are God’s warriors, His true, faithful men.
Come, follow them! Come, follow them!

4.

Prophets of God speak His Word every place—
Great is God’s grace! Great is God’s grace!
And ’gainst the harlot’s deceit swing the Sword.
Who trusts the Lord? Who trusts the Lord?
