[Verse 1]
My hands are tired
My knees feel worn
I’ve been fighting shadows
Since the break of dawn
I stare at the mess
And I want to quit
My heart says run now
But I can’t quite sit
[Pre-Chorus]
Still, You stay near
When I lose my breath
You hold the line
When I’m close to death
[Chorus]
You fight my battles
You fight my battles
When I can’t stand
You stand for me
You fight my battles
You fight my battles
I may fall down
But I am free
[Verse 2]
I’ve got torn-up prayers
On a scarred-out page
I’ve got fear in my chest
And a storm in my cage
I tried on my own
And I came up short
But mercy found me
At the end of my report
[Pre-Chorus]
Still, You stay near
When I lose my breath
You hold the line
When I’m close to death
[Chorus]
You fight my battles
You fight my battles
When I can’t stand
You stand for me
You fight my battles
You fight my battles
I may fall down
But I am free
[Bridge]
I let go
I let You in
This is where
Your strength begins
Not by might
Not by my hand
You go before me
You make me stand
[Final Chorus]
You fight my battles
You fight my battles
When I can’t stand
You stand for me
You fight my battles
You fight my battles
I may fall down
But I am free
You fight my battles
You fight my battles
So I won’t run
I will believe

I have always been a bit of a tinkerer, playing with new technology and figuring things out as I go. I started my professional career in airfreight and moved on to retail (specifically computer stores). After a brief stint in sales I returned to retail in various managerial roles before moving to corporate IT. I migrated to Industrial Relations and had various roles, including General Manager of a large, national Labour Consultancy Firm. Currently employed in the Coal Mining sector.
