smell the burning powder

[Based on Proverbs 3 6
1 Peter 5 8 Matthew 16 24]

Smell the burning powder
There s danger in the air
A voice from deep inside
is telling you you must beware
Then enemy is watching
Every step you take
To find his opportunity
in every choice you make

And it s no game
When someone lives without His grace
And who s to blame
When it blows up in their face

It s a mine field
you d better follow Him through
God knows the way
you d better stick like glue
It s a mine field
better stay on His heels
cause the enemy kills
and the enemy steals
So keep your head down
and keep you eyes peeled
cause life is...
Life is a mine field

Think the grass is greener
You d better look around
Everywhere you look another
casualty is found
The enemy is waiting
For you to start to run
Waiting like an itchy finger
on a loaded gun

Some may feel
They can wander out too far
They may heal
But they may always wear the scar

Better leave the navigation
to the One who knows the Way
He will bring illumination
He will light your path each day

It s a mine field
better watch where you tread
Step off the path and
you could end up dead
It s a mine field
better stay on His heels
cause the enemy
kills and the enemy steals
So keep your head down
and keep your eyes peeled
cause life is...
Life is a mine field
