1. When discouraged with fear,
And the dark hours appear;
When the tempter would try to o’erthrow thee;
Fear not! Tho’ the strife be long,
Thou art weak, but Christ is strong;
Morning light for thee shall dawn
In glorious Vict’ry!
(Chorus) Victory in Jesus,
There is victory in Him alone;
Forward to the battle never fearing,
Christ has gone before, the way is clearing,
Hear the voice, “I’m with you, I will deliver,”
Trust and do not fear the battle’s roar,
Go forth to vict’ry and rejoice with me forevermore.
2. When thy courage doth fail,
And when the foe would prevail,
Trust in God—do not fear or grow weary:
Hearken to the Savior’s call,
“I will never let thee fall,
Fear thou not, in me is all
Thy hope and vict’ry!”
3. On His might then depend,
With the foe He’ll contend—
He has promised, “I never will leave thee,”
Strength and pow’r He will supply,
Satan’s hosts shall flee and die,
Victory for thee is nigh—
The promised vict’ry!
