Analysis of HOLY GHOST INVASION
HOLY GHOST INVASION
The giant comes against me.
Victor of all he's fought
Boasting of his victory,
He's everything I'm not
Then comes your Holy Spirit
Bursting through my soul
I shout so all can hear it
Tell this devil, "NO!"
Holy Ghost invasion! No foe can stand
The Spirit burst free across the land!
Holy Ghost invasion! Devil run and flee
the victory is sure, when the Spirit lives in me
We're following a Holy Sign
To the Sea that's called Red
Pharoh's armies come behind
The waters lie ahead
Then feel the Holy wind
The sea is lying dry
The enemies power will end
As the Spirit lifts you high
Holy Ghost invasion! No foe can stand
The Spirit burst free across the land!
Holy Ghost invasion! Devil run and flee
the victory is sure, when the Spirit lives in me
Standing before Your Cross
As You die in my place
Lord how much it cost
To pour on us Your Grace!
A drop of Your precious Blood
Lands upon my outstretched hand
Your Spirit rises in me like a Flood
And I shout Your glory across the land!
Holy Ghost invasion! No foe can stand
The Spirit burst free across the land!
Holy Ghost invasion! Devil run and flee
the victory is sure, when the Spirit lives in me
The Church has gone astray
Fallen flat on Her back
Yet as His chosen rise to obey
And resists the Devils attack
And we the church seek the sky
Are filled with the Spirit of our Lord
We lift Heaven's battle cry
And swing His Holy Sword!
Holy Ghost invasion! No foe can stand
The Spirit burst free across the land!
Holy Ghost invasion! Devil run and flee
the victory is sure, when the Spirit lives in me
AMEN
