The Cyber Hymnal ‎#7071

7071. Victory in My Soul

1. The burden of my fear and sin
On Christ by faith I roll;
And now I have His peace within
And victory in my soul.

Refrain
There’s victory in my soul,
Victory in my soul;
I grasp the promises by faith,
There’s victory in my soul.

2. I know there is a test for me,
A battle to be won;
But God ensures the victory
Before it is begun. [Refrain]

3. On battlefields of long ago,
When saints have drawn the sword,
Their strength did not o’ercome the foe,
But trusting in the Lord. [Refrain]

4. While leaning on His arm alone
I cannot know defeat;
The glory shall be all His own
When victory is complete. [Refrain]

5. E’en death itself I do not fear
Since Christ hath borne its sting;
His presence through the valley drear
Will help us then to sing. [Refrain]
