    Behind The Song: Phil Wickham Shares The Heart Behind His Song “Battle Belongs”

    By Abby Young | Christian News | 0 comment | 15 September, 2020 | 5

    This week’s featured song story comes to us from Phil Wickham. We’re excited to share with you the story behind his new song “Battle Belongs.”

    “One of my favorite stories in all of scripture comes from 2 Chronicles 20. It’s a story of this huge army that is amassed to come against the people of God. And when the people of God and their king, Jehoshaphat hear this horde coming their way, they freak out. They literally come to God and say, ‘We are powerless against this army but our eyes are on you God. Show us what to do.’ And God responds to them. His spirit comes upon this Levite man and through the Levite man God says, ‘Do not be afraid or dismayed for the battle is not yours, but it is God’s. You will not have to fight in this battle. Stand firm, hold your position, and see the salvation of the Lord on your behalf.’ So much so that instead of sending their army into the front lines, they sent their worshippers into the front lines. The holy men in their robes started singing give thanks to the Lord for His steadfast love endures forever. And you know what happened to the other army as they heard the singing? They freaked out. They were routed. They startred turning on each other to the point where the scriptures say not one of them was left alive. God moved on behalf of His people and God is still moving and battling on behalf of His people.” – Phil Wickham

    “Battle Belongs” Lyrics

    When all I see is the battle
    You see my victory
    When all I see is the mountain
    You see a mountain moved
    And as I walk through the shadow
    Your love surrounds me
    There’s nothing to fear now
    For I am safe with You

    So when I fight I’ll fight on my knees
    With my hands lifted high
    Oh God the battle belongs to You
    And every fear I lay at Your feet
    I’ll sing through the night
    Oh God the battle belongs to You

    And if You are for me
    Who can be against me (yeah)
    For Jesus there’s nothing
    Impossible for You
    When all I see are the ashes
    You see the beauty (thank You God)
    When all I see is a cross
    God You see the empty tomb

    So when I fight I’ll fight on my knees
    With my hands lifted high
    Oh God the battle belongs to You
    And every fear I lay at Your feet
    I’ll sing through the night
    Oh God the battle belongs to You

    Almighty Fortress You go before us
    Nothing can stand against
    The power of our God
    You shine in the shadow
    You win every battle
    Nothing can stand against
    The power of our God

    Almighty Fortress You go before us
    Nothing can stand against
    The power of our God
    You shine in the shadow
    You win every battle
    Nothing can stand against
    The power of our God

    Almighty Fortress You go before us
    Nothing can stand against
    The power of our God
    You shine in the shadows
    You win every battle
    Nothing can stand against
    The power of our God

    So when I fight I’ll fight on my knees
    With my hands lifted high
    Oh God the battle belongs to You
    And every fear I lay at Your feet
    I’ll sing through the night
    Oh God the battle belongs to You

    Oh God the battle belongs to You
