“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33)
‘You can’t see a way, then a mountain moves,
Skies are lonely grey, then the sun breaks through,
When your darkest hour surrenders to the dawn.
Nowhere left to turn, but the sea will part,
Running out of hope, still He holds your heart,
And He won’t let go, He’s with you through it all.
His love will overcome, overcome,
His love has already won, already won.
Will you take a stand, and a step of faith,
Will you trust the hands, that calm the waves,
You don’t have to ever be afraid, He is with you through it all.
Deep and wide an endless tide from age to age,
Stronger than whatever we may face.
I know that His love will overcome, His love will overcome,
The ultimate war’s already won, His love will overcome.
His love will overcome, overcome,
His love has already won, already won.’ (‘Overcome’, Kutless)
Christ’s victory draw forth praise from us:
‘Triumphant conqueror, forever glorious
Our Lord victorious, You are worthy
Our mighty warrior, the banner over us
Our Lord victorious, You are worthy
You are worthy.’ (‘Triumphant Conqueror’, Aaron Shust)
