Christ centered songs written by Dan Simmons...the best Gospel and inspirational A.I. music on the internet!

"firesong" is the songwriting ministry of Dan Simmons Thanks for stopping by. It's my desire to faithfully share that which has been given to me. This website will be a sampling of recordings that I, along with family and friends, have done over past 45 years. There are over 600 original unpublished songs presented in demo form on this site. Special thanks go to my partners in music, my daughter Amber, son Ian and the guys of Single Heart (Gene, Bob, Chris, Marty and Tata) who joined me to sing praises to the Lord down through the years. I also wish to thank those co-writers and artists that have joined with me in developing new music the passed few years to share on this website. I'm now featuring AI (Artificial Intelligence) groups that I've developed to sing some of the songs. I hope it's evident to everyone... that though the melodies and harmonies, styles and singers may change... JESUS has always been and will always be...the Song! ...this music is one simple expression of a very thankful heart. (Dan is a retired firefighter and ordained minister)

Story behind the song

I wrote this song in the mid 90's for a Promise Keepers group that I was part of... to encourage and challege themand let them know that we are not alone in our in our spiritual warfare for ourselves and our families.

Lyrics

We are soldiers in the army of the Lord
Fighting battles we can’t see
We’ve been called commissioned by the Word
To tear the strongholds down and set men free

We are warriors of the Mighty One
Called to raise the standard of God’s risen Son
Although the battles rage...we call upon His name
Knowing the victory will be won...by the warriors

We’re not fighting flesh but principalities
Rulers of a dark and sinful world
We’ll overcome them if we fight them on our knees
With prayers that rise like a flag unfurled


For the warriors of the Mighty One
Called to raise the standard of God’s risen Son
Although the battles rage...we call upon His name
Knowing the victory will be won...by the warriors

Onward Christian soldiers...marching as to war
With the cross of Jesus...going on before
Raise the royal banner...lift it to the sky
Jesus our deliverer...with the victory draweth nigh

For the warriors of the Mighty One
Called to raise the standard of God’s risen Son
Although the battles rage...we’ll call upon His name
Knowing the victory will be won...by the warriors

Are you willing to put the armor on
Stand for what you know is right
Teach your children that the battle is the Lord’s
He is their sword and shield to stand against the night

As warriors of the Mighty One
Called to raise the standard of God’s risen Son
Although the battles rage...we call upon His name
Knowing the victory will be won...by the warriors

Dan, 
what an anointed, encouraging song...great, great lyrics, wow! 
We need this song in this dark world, in this dark night - Jesus is our Hero, our Warrior, our Victor and because He is on our side, we´ll never be defeated.  I love this song! It´s so amazing how a song in minor key can be so victorious!
With blessings, Lea
