Lyrics 1. Victory, victory, glorious victory, Onward, soldiers of the Lord; Hear the soul inspiring promise, We shall conquer thro' his word. Chorus: We shall overcome the world, hallelujah to his name, We shall overcome by faith, We shall overcome the world, Hallelujah to his name, Who has triumphed over death. 2. Victory, victory, glorious victory, Faint not, fear not, boldly stand; Wave our banner, shout hosanna, With the Spirit's sword in hand. 3. Victory, victory, glorious victory, Still is sounding from the sky, While before our great Commander Satan's vanquish'd armies fly. 4. Victory, victory, glorious victory, Soon we'll lay our armor down; Soon give up the cross forever, And receive the victor's crown.
