Breck Hymnal: The Old Story in Song Number Two #124 (1908) First Line: In the warfare of life there are conflicts with sin Refrain First Line: More than conquerors, more than conquerors Lyrics: 1 In the warfare of life there are conflicts with sin, There is many and many a battle to win; But with Jesus to help us without and within, We shall be “more than conquerors.” Refrain: More than conquerors, more than conquerors, We are more than conquerors thro’ Christ our Lord; More than conquerors, more than conquerors, Thro’ Him that loved us, Christ our Lord. 2 ‘Mid the strife and the clamor, the doubting and fears, There is need for a courage to reach thro’ the years; But if we shall endure till the ending appears, We shall be “more than conquerors.” [Refrain] 3 O the glory and joy when the conflict is done! O the shouts of rejoicing when triumph is won! In the garments of light, shining forth as the sun, We shall be “more than conquerors.” [Refrain] Tune Title: [In the warfare of life there are conflicts with sin]
