There's more that stand on our side No matter what you see A king who hated Israel Was tryin' to win a war But every move he made It seemed that Israel knew before "No, it's not a spy inside our camp," His men explained one day "There's a prophet named Elisha Hears every word you say." They found out where Elisha lived And the army marched that night They surrounded all the city By the morning's early light When Elisha's servant rose He saw that army all around And he said, "What are we gonna do? They're gonna cut us down." But Elisha told his servant "Now, don't give in to your fear Those that are with us Are more than all this army here." And Elisha prayed that his servant's eyes Would have the sight required And he saw God's mighty army With its chariots of fire There's more that stand on our side No matter what you see Doesn't matter how it seems How strong the enemy Don't believe your eyes Believe your Father's guarantee They're more that stand on our side
No matter what you see The enemy moved towards the town And Elisha prayed a prayer "Lord, strike 'em all with blindness Let confusion be a snare." God struck that whole army blind And he brought them to defeat The victory that he gave that day Was total and complete There's more that stand on our side No matter what you see It doesn't matter how it seems How strong the enemy Don't believe your eyes Believe your Father's guarantee They're more that stand on our side No matter what you see The eyes of God search all the earth To find each blameless heart To show his power and faithfulness To take his children's part And though fear is all around you Don't you dare give in Because the battle is the Lord's And he's the one who's gonna win There's more that stand on our side No matter what you see It doesn't matter how it seems How strong the enemy Don't believe your eyes Believe your Father's guarantee They're more that stand on our side No matter what you see
