Victory In My Soul
1 John 5:1-5
1 Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves Him who begot also loves him who is begotten of Him. 2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God and keep His commandments. 3 For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome. 4 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith. 5 Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

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.
There’s victory in my soul,
Victory in my soul;
I grasp the promises by faith,
There’s victory in my soul.
I know there is a test for me,
A battle to be won;
But God ensures the victory
Before it is begun.
There’s victory in my soul,
Victory in my soul;
I grasp the promises by faith,
There’s victory in my soul.
On battlefields of long ago,
When saints have drawn the sword,
Their strength did not o’ercome the foe,
But trusting in the Lord.
There’s victory in my soul,
Victory in my soul;
I grasp the promises by faith,
There’s victory in my soul.
While leaning on His arm alone
I cannot know defeat;
The glory shall be all His own
When victory is complete.
There’s victory in my soul,
Victory in my soul;
I grasp the promises by faith,
There’s victory in my soul.
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.
There’s victory in my soul,
Victory in my soul;
I grasp the promises by faith,
There’s victory in my soul.
