Victory Through Jesus

E. S. Lorenz • English

Primary Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:5

Verse 1

Hear the shout of triumph, hear the mighty song, Filling earth and heaven as it rolls along; Like the roar of waters breaking on the shore; 'Tis vict'ry to the Savior, now and ever more!

Chorus

Hear ye this cry, (Hear the shout of triumph, as we pass along;) Hear the (ringing) battle cry, For the foe is (drawing) nigh, 'Tis the ever glorious triumph song; (the song of triumph,) Hear ye this cry, (Hear the shout of triumph, as we pass along,) Hear the music ringing; All the world is singing 'Tis the song of triumph, the glorious victory.

Verse 2

Many were the battles, constant was the strife, Fierce the raging conflict in their earthly life, Yet they never falter'd, for the Lord was strong: He was the Rock and Fortress, Victory and Song.

Chorus

Hear ye this cry, (Hear the shout of triumph, as we pass along;) Hear the (ringing) battle cry, For the foe is (drawing) nigh, 'Tis the ever glorious triumph song; (the song of triumph,) Hear ye this cry, (Hear the shout of triumph, as we pass along,) Hear the music ringing; All the world is singing 'Tis the song of triumph, the glorious victory.

Verse 3

Onward, then forever, tho' our strength is small; Jesus is our Leader, ev'ry foe must fall! Then we'll join the ransom'd on the other shore; Victory thro' the Savior, ringing ever more.

Chorus

Hear ye this cry, (Hear the shout of triumph, as we pass along;) Hear the (ringing) battle cry, For the foe is (drawing) nigh, 'Tis the ever glorious triumph song; (the song of triumph,) Hear ye this cry, (Hear the shout of triumph, as we pass along,) Hear the music ringing; All the world is singing 'Tis the song of triumph, the glorious victory.
