Victory Ahead

When the hosts of Is­ra­el led by God

Round the walls of Je­ri­cho soft­ly trod

Trusting in the Lord

They felt the con­quer­or’s tread

By faith they saw the vic­to­ry ahead.

Victory ahead

vic­to­ry ahead

Through the blood of Je­sus

vic­to­ry ahead.

Trusting in the Lord

I hear the con­quer­or’s tread

By faith I see the vic­to­ry ahead.

David with a shep­herd’s sling and five stones

Met the gi­ant on the field all alone

Trusting in the Lord

he knew what God had said

By faith he saw the vic­to­ry ahead.

Daniel prayed un­to the Lord thrice each day

Then unto the li­on’s den led the way

Trusting in the Lord

he did not fear or dread

By faith he saw the vic­to­ry ahead.

Often with the car­nal mind I was tried

Asking for de­liv­er­ance oft I cried

Trusting in the Lord

I reck­oned I was dead

By faith I see the vic­to­ry ahead.

When like those who’ve gone be­fore to that land

By death’s riv­er cold and dark I shall stand.

Trusting in the Lord

I will not fear or dread

By faith I see the vic­to­ry ahead.
