Analysis of Declaration of the Lord



I gave declaration of love.
I gave my breath to give you life.
I gave my children free will.
I gave you discernment.
I gave my life to set you free.
I gave my declaration of war.
I gave you authority.
I gave you, my sword.
Death has been defeated.
Declare it, victory is yours.
