Worshipper and the Warrior

She stands on the wall
Watching, praying, and waiting to see
If the enemy has planned a sneak attack
There on the other side of the wall, you will find me
With my eyes closed tight, and with arms opened wide
Inviting God's presence to dwell inside
They say that God inhabits our praises
I just love to worship Him, and to seek His face that way
Maybe God has done a new thing in us
kind of switched the roles just a little
Though I pray, I haven't developed
that warrior instinct that she has perfected
Although she loves God with all her heart
She's not likely to be the one that you’ll find prostrated
Our different functions strengthen one another,
Both are complimenting God and all that He is in us
What a complete and wonderful work He has done
I am the worshipper, and she, the warrior
Together waging war against Satan's kingdom
and giving God the glory as the walls come down
