Gray Hymnal: Tabernacle Hymns #7 (1960) First Line: The burden of my fear and sin Refrain First Line: There's victory in my soul Lyrics: 1 The burden of my fear and sin On Christ by faith I roll; And now I have His peace within And vict'ry in my soul. Chorus: There’s victory in my soul, Victory in my soul; I grasp the promises by faith, - There’s victory Vict'ry in my soul. 2 I know there is a test for me, A battle to be won; But God ensures the victory Before it is begun.
