Victory in My Soul

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.

On bat­tle­fields of long ago

When saints have drawn the sword

Their strength did not o’er­come the foe

But trust­ing in the Lord.

While lean­ing on His arm alone

I can­not know de­feat;

The glo­ry shall be all His own

When vic­to­ry is com­plete.

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.
