Text: | On the Victory Side |
Author: | James L. Black |
Tune: | [Our souls cry out, hallelujah!] |
Composer: | Jno. R. Sweney |
1 Our souls cry out, hallelujah!
And our faith, enraptured, sings,
While we throw to the breeze the standard
Of the mighty King of kings.
Chorus:
On the vict'ry side, on the vict'ry side,
In the ranks of the Lord are we;
On the vict'ry side we will boldly stand,
Till the glory land we see.
2 Our souls cry out, hallelujah!
For the Lord himself comes near,
And the shout of a royal army
On the battlefield we hear. [Chorus]
3 Our souls cry out, hallelujah!
For the tempter flies apace,
And the chains he has forged are breaking,
Thro' the pow'r of redeeming grace. [Chorus]
4 Our souls cry out, hallelujah!
And our hearts beat high with praise,
Unto him, in whose name we'll conquer,
And our song of triumph raise. [Chorus]
