Faith is the Victory -ins171.mid - [Play Midi]

1. Encamped along the hills of light, ye Christian soldiers, rise
   And press the battle ere the night shall veil the glowing skies
   Against the foe in vales below let all our strength be hurled
   Faith is the victory, we know, that overcomes the world.

2. His banner over us is love, His sword the Word of God
   We tread the road the saints above with shouts of triumph trod
   By faith, they like a whirlwind's breath, swept on o'er ev'ry field
   The faith by which they conquered death is still our shining shield

3. On ev'ry hand the foe we find drawn up in dread array
   Let tents of ease be left behind, and onward to the fray
   Salvation's helmet on each head, with truth all girt about
   The earth shall tremble 'neath our tread, and echo with our shout

4. To him who overcomes the foe white raiment shall be giv'n
   Before the angels he shall know his name confessed in heav'n
   Then onward from the hills of light, our hearts with love aflame
   We'll vanquish all the hosts of night in Jesus' conqu'ring name

Chorus:

Faith is the victory! Faith is the victory!
Oh, glorious victory that overcomes the world
