Faith Is the Victory
Verse 1:
Encamped along the hills of light,
Ye Christian soldiers, rise,
And press the battle ere the night
Shall veil the glowing skies.
Against the foe in vales below
Let all our strength be hurled;
Faith is the victory, we know,
That overcomes the world.
Refrain:
Faith is the victory!
O glorious victory
That overcomes the world.
Verse 2:
His banner over us is love,
Our sword the Word of God;
We tread the road
The saints above
With shouts of triumph trod.
By faith they, like a
Whirlwind's breath,
Swept on over ev'ry field;
The faith by which
They conquered death
Is still our shining shield.
Refrain:
Faith is the victory!
O glorious victory
That overcomes the world.
Verse 3:
To him that overcomes the foe
White raiment shall be given;
Before the angels
Verse 3:
He shall know
His name confessed
In heaven;
Verse 3:
Then onward from
The hills of light,
Our hearts with love a flame;
Verse 3:
We'll vanquish
All the hosts of night,
In Jesus' conquering name.
Refrain:
Faith is the victory!
O glorious victory
That overcomes the world.
