We Have Won

Have you ever seen The Exercism of Emily Rose? The movie is interesting, but when it's over you're left thinking, "Where is the victory? Is this the hope we have in Christ? I hope Satan doesn't win!" Then to top it off, the last words they leave you with are the second half of Philippians 2:12 , "Work out your savation with FEAR!!!!!" That veres sounds very hopeless unless you read verse 13, "For it is God who is at work within you..." It isn't all up to us. Christ is at work within us! I wrote this song because the battle is done. Our God Reigns. When Christ died and rose again, the emeny was defeated. We are only waiting for the day when faith shall become sight. Can you imagine what it will be like when He returns? Everything will fade away and we will experience the greatest victory ever.


Verse 1:
Victory in Jesus
The battle is done
Sin is overcome by our King
Who layed down His life
And overcame death
All so that we could be free

Verse 2:
Do not fear
Our God comes
And He will rescue His chosen ones
For surely He'll hear
The sound of our cries
The sword of God will set us free
And we will sing

Verse 3:
A sound in the deep
A trumpet rings out
The clouds roll back and You descend
And on that day
When faith becomes sight
And we are standing in the light
Then we will sing...

Chorus:
We have won
We have won
The battle's done
Our God reigns

  1. I always picture LOTR when I hear this song...when the Riders of Rohan charge into battle to the aid of Gondor....
