Lyrics

There’s a song within my heart,
I am singing every day,
Since the Lord has washed all my sins away;
With His power to overcome,
For His glo­ry I can say,
Praise the Lord for vic­to­ry!

Refrain

There is vic­to­ry every day,
There is vic­to­ry all the way,
Let us shout and sing,
Let His praises ring!
Since my sins are washed away,
I’m rejoicing every day,
Praise the Lord for vic­to­ry!

All the fear of sin and death,
All the terrors of the grave,
Were for­ev­er lost when His life He gave;
For He rose again to life
And is able now to save,
Praise the Lord for vic­to­ry!

Refrain

In the darkened shades of night,
When the tempter shall assail,
I may fly to Him who will ne­ver fail;
He has promised if we trust,
We may in His name prevail,
Praise the Lord for vic­to­ry!

Refrain

Yes, I know in whom I trust,
And I know He will uphold,
For His love is true, and His power untold;
We shall reign with Him as kings,
When His glo­ry shall unfold,
Praise the Lord for vic­to­ry!
