What do a legendary Japanese swordsman and the Christian walk have in common? In this video, we explore the unexpected connection between Miyamoto Musashi’s timeless teachings and Christian values. From discipline and strategy to grace and purpose, you'll discover how a believer can apply Musashi’s insights — not only to grow personally, but to preach the Gospel with clarity and conviction. This is more than just a song. It’s a fusion of sword and spirit.
(Verse 1)
In the quiet of the morning, before the world begins to fight
I sharpen not just steel, but my soul in holy light
Musashi taught of balance, of presence in the storm
But Christ gave me salvation, a love that keeps me warm
(Pre-Chorus)
Two swords in hand — one of truth, one of grace
I'm walking steady, running life's relentless race
(Chorus)
I fight with honor, I walk by faith
In every challenge, I find my place
Discipline meets devotion, wisdom in the flame
My sword and spirit cry Jesus’ name
(Verse 2)
He said know your enemy — but love them just the same
Be still, be bold, be humble — let purpose drive your aim
The Book of Five Rings and the Gospel intertwine
Strategy and mercy make a warrior divine
(Bridge)
From dojo to desert, from silence to shout
I preach with my actions — let the Spirit move out
Where Musashi taught courage, Christ taught me peace
And in both, I find strength that will never cease
(Final Chorus)
I fight with honor, I walk by faith
In every challenge, I find my place
Disciplined heart, surrendered soul
Sword & Spirit make me whole
My path is fierce, my love is real
The Word is sharper than tempered steel
