Lyrics

I Will Not Behave Like Prey

(Chorus)
Though the enemy?s upon me, I will not behave like prey,
I will not run into closets or seek night instead of day,
I will turn and face the danger, while a Friend, unseen, stands by,
Know the power of truth within me is greater than the lie,
I will not let fear or prejudice or vengeance seek its way,
Though the enemy?s upon me, I will NOT behave like prey.

Like Daniel in the lion?s den, the lion?s not my foe,
Like Jonah and the whale, the whale just did as she was told,
Like Eve and Adam blamed each other for that first mistake,
The enemy?s not you or me, the lie came from that snake!

(repeat chorus)

That toothless lion, clawless beast, a viper without sting,
Would rob us of our peace and would to us such chaos bring,
That hateful creature?s not our foe, the enemy is Hate,
I will not be a victim or be left outside the gate,

(repeat chorus)

It?s said the soul of liberty may never conquest know,
The force of love and justice will not to battle go,
With Satan?s tools of hate and lies, the devil leads the field,
But love?s our only weapon and faith our only shield,

(repeat chorus)

Pray for those who persecute you,
Love, forgive and set them free,
I will not behave like prey.
