Category Archives: Victory in Jesus

Sins Defeat

I’ve fought so hard to win the victory
Yet sin still seems to have its grip on me
I’ve wandered from His teaching way to long
Now I’m not sure if I can still go on

The guilt and shame of sin wells up inside
My heart pumps hard and there’s nowhere to hid
His eyes look down on me with love and grace
He reaches out His arms and we embrace

I realize right then I’ve done it wrong
I’ve truly had the vict’ry all along
I just needed to stand on my two feet
And decide I will not walk in sins defeat

The strength to stand comes from my walk with Him
He gives me power to leave behind my sin
The longer I keep fighting, never done
For Jesus has already freedom won

My vict’ry lies within His written word
There’s nothing more I need to be secured
I lift my hands, surrender all to Him
My heart, my soul my mind and all my sin

For long ago they nailed Him to a cross
His blood cleansed all my sin, He paid the cost
And then He rose in triumph over death
So I could give to Him my every breath

I Am A Victor

The Savior now sits upon His throne
He rose from the grave and ascended above
The praise of the angels greeted Him there
The Cherubim flying around in the air

Oh, how I’d love to hear the applause
As Jesus ascended from earths humble cause
He bought our salvation and set us all free
By taking upon Him the curse meant for me

Praise, adoration and worship on High
Unto the one who has won the fight
Satan defeated when he thought he’d won
Victory given to God’s only Son

From lamb who was slaughtered to lion who reigns
He did it all our vict’ry to claim
Death is defeated, the grave has no sting
It’s time to lift up our praises and sing

Hosanna, hosanna to Jesus my Lord
Hallelujah, amen to the one I adore
Exalted and seated upon the throne
All power and authority He does now own

Forever I’ll worship and lift up His name
Because of Him my life is not the same
I am a victor because of He arose
And I’ll live forever with Jesus my Lord

The Great Victory

I looked at the cross and what did I see
But Jesus my Lord looking down at me
His body was bloody and filled with pain
Then I heard Him say "I will rise again"

This cross is simply a means to an end
Soon I will die and this pain will end
They will put my body in a borrowed grave 
It will seem like all hope had been erased

A stone will be rolled across the door
Guards will be placed to make it secure
I will be busy behind the scenes
Leaving this grave to take back the keys 

I'll enter the realm of the devil himself 
And demand that he give me the keys he has held
These keys give release from hell and the grave
So that all who had loved me now will be raised

Then I will  roll the stone from the grave
The guards will be stunned and will fall down in place
I will rise victorious over death and the grave
And you will be granted new life in my name

A life filled with hope and joy and peace
A life where my mercy and grace never cease
Don't worry my child, do not be afraid
This cross that I bear brings a victory so great

It’s All Good

 When I come up against an ocean of fear
 And doubt surrounds me like the enemy
 There is nowhere to turn for escape
 There is nowhere to hide
 Defeat seems imminent
 I hear you say
 It’s all good
  
 When the trials are hotter than I can stand
 And the lion is waiting in his den
 There is no hope for relief
 There is nowhere to run
 Death is right around the corner
 I hear you say
 It’s all good
  
 I turned the sea to dry land
 I turned air into manna
 I turned water into wine
 I turned bones into flesh
 I turned walls into rubble
 I turned death to life
 I turned all these things before
 I can turn them again
  
 So when all seems lost
 And there’s nothing left to do
 Turn to Jesus
 Turn to prayer                       
 Turn to peace
 Turn to joy
 Turn to hope
 Because in the end
 No matter what it looks like now
 No matter how bad it might seem
 No matter what you think
 God says it’s all good 

The Power of His Hand

 When the enemy is closing in behind me
 And the sea blocks my way ahead
 I lift up my praise
 And the Lord parts the waves
 Seas part by the power of His hand
  
 When the walls of doubt rise up before me
 And I fear what may lie ahead
 I lift up my praise
 The walls fall.  I’m amazed
 Walls fall by the power of His hand
  
 When God calls and I cower in fear
 Not knowing if I am the one
 I lift up my praise
 My lamp shines to daze
 Victory by the power of His hand
  
 When a giant looms tall before me
 And I have but a stone and a sling
 I lift up my praise
 As the stone finds the way
 Giants fall by the power of His hand
  
 When the heat of the battle is strong
 And I’m thrown in with only a prayer
 I lift up my praise
 And the Lord shows the way
 Fire quenched the power of His hand
  
 When the lions den becomes my home
 And their hunger is shown on their face
 I lift up my praise
 And the Lord makes them tame
 Lions calm by the power of His hand
  
 When I’m chained up in a prison cell
 And it seems there is no way out
 I lift up my praise
 And God breaks every chain
 Prison open the power of His hand 

Take Flight

 Arise out of your slumber
 Awake out of your sleep
 The God of all creation
 Calls to me.  Calls to me
  
 Do not give in to temptation
 Do not follow your fear
 The plans I have for you
 Are coming near.  Coming near
  
 You are my child forever
 You are my hearts delight
 I am the God of heaven
 Open up your heart
 And take flight
  
 Nothing can stop you.  Nothing can harm you
 Nothing can steal your joy
 Nothing to worry. Nothing to fear
 Only my love forever
 My love forever 

Shout the Victory

I’ve decided not to fear
To no longer live in doubt
I’ll no longer walk in places of defeat
Now I know my enemy
He is always after me
Speaking words that are filled with deceit
 
I will now just trust the Lord
To work all things for my good
I know He’s the one who’s always in control
He is right here by my side
In Him I will abide
He’s victorious every time this I know
 
Shout the victory
No longer in defeat
Jesus reigns over all the enemies
He’s the one who died for me
From my fears He set me free
I’ll sing Hallelujah to my King
 
Hallelujah.  Hallelujah
Hallelujah to the one who saved my soul
Hallelujah.  Hallelujah
Jesus Christ won the victory
 
We have no reason to fear.   None whatsoever.  I must admit that I have been guilty of worrying and fearing over who wins this election.  There is such a difference in both the demeanor and the policies of the two candidates.  I have come to a place where I am going to trust the Lord and pray for my leaders.  Down on my knees in prayer for those in authority which is what the word tells us to do.  We bicker and murmur and complain about those in authority.  We laugh at cartoons and jokes about the Senate and the House of Representatives.  Please tell me where in scripture it says that is okay to do!  Elijah called a bear out of the words to destroy those that mocked him.  How dare we mock those whom God has put in authority over us!
 
We need to pray and not fear.  Pray for whoever is President, because God has put them there.  If it’s not a godly person, I blame it on the church.  We have been lax on prayer.  We have not done what God tells us to do.  When the Israelites did that in the days of the judges,. God gave them over to the enemy.  Why should we think he will do any different to us?  It’s about time we stop fearing and just pray!
 
Psalm 91:5-6 King James Version
Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
 

A Crown of Victory

Adam and Eve were awakened that day
When their innocency was washed away
From God’s presence they became afraid
So they hid from the face of God
 
He asked them why they hid away
They blamed one another for their shame
But God knew that they were both to blame
Sin had now entered the world
 
He told the woman she would give birth
He told the man that the earth would be cursed
Thorns and thistles would grow to hinder their work
In that garden that once was free
 
The way was blocked to the tree of life
For thousands of years man lived in strife
Then Jesus cam and offered His life
As a ransom for you and me
 
He told a story about seeds that were sown
The seed of the Word of God was His own
Yet for many the thorns made the word unknown
And the seed withered and died
 
The thorns He wore that day as a crown
Represented the thorns that grew from the ground
Of the garden that day when man fell down
He wore them the day that He died
 
But those thorns were a crown of victory
That Jesus won for you and me
He is the way to that wonderful tree
That gives us eternal life
 
 
 
 

I Surrender to You



All of my sin I will leave in the past
Then I will walk in freedom at last
The enemies shadow will no longer cast
Because I surrender to you
 
All of my pain I will lay at your feet
The stripes on your back brought my healing indeed
I will no longer walk in defeat
Because I surrender to you
 
CHORUS
I surrender to you, Lord
I surrender to you
My victory comes when I surrender to you
I don’t have to fight the battle with sin
Because you have already won
 
All of my heartache I humbly forgive
I don’t need to hold on to hurts I’ve received
My heart will rejoice as I let them retreat
Because I surrender to you
 
CHORUS

BRIDGE
All to Jesus I surrender
All to Him I freely give
Take my life Lord from this moment
In your love I’ll always live
 
CHORUS

The Only Way

I can’t imagine what I’d do without you
Your Spirit guides me every single day
Not a soul goes by that I don’t talk about you
For all must know that you’re the only way

CHORUS
The only way
The only way
Jesus you are the only way
Because one day
We’ll be swept away
All must know that you’re the only way

Lord, help to reveal my testimony
The story of my life can touch the heart
You brought me out of darkness into glory
You brought me out of sin into the light

CHORUS

BRIDGE
Now I must pray every day
I must witness to all who come my way
Jesus you receive my praise
Let my voice exalt your name

CHORUS
