We were surrounded; badly outnumbered.

I cried, “O Master, What shall we do?”

He answered, “Fear not! Those who are with us

Are more than those within your present view!”

 

Elisha, my master, prayed, “Lord, I ask Thee

Open his eyes, that he may see."

And then my eyes, the eyes of a servant,

Were somehow opened, and I could see!

 

  I saw the horses of an angel army

  When all around us seemed dark and dire!

  Though formed against us was a force of many,

  All around my master: chariots of fire!

 

Our foes moved closer – my master prayed again,

“Lord strike them blind: our enemies!”

And they all were blinded – my master led them

As kingdom captives, soon to be set free.

 

If you’re surrounded; badly outnumbered,

You’ve cried to Jesus, “What shall we do?”

His Word says, “Fear Not!" Those who are with us

Are more than those within your present view!

 

  I saw the horses of an angel army

  When all around us seemed dark and dire!

  Though formed against us was a force of many,

  All around my master: chariots of fire!
