608- Faith Is the Victory
Christian Life: Christian Warfare
1
- Encamped along the hills of light,
- Ye Christian soldiers, rise,
- And press the battle ere the night
- Shall veil the glowing skies.
- Against the foe in vales below
- Let all our strength be hurled;
- Faith is the victory, we know,
- That overcomes the world.
Refrain
- Faith is the victory!
- Faith is the victory!
- O, glorious victory,
- That overcomes the world.
2
- On every hand the foe we find
- Drawn up in dread array;
- Let tents of ease be left behind,
- And onward to the fray;
- Salvation's helmet on each head,
- With truth all girt about,
- The earth shall tremble 'neath our tread,
- And echo with our shout.
3
- To him that overcomes the foe,
- White raiment shall be giv'n;
- Before the angels he shall know
- His name confessed in heav'n.
- Then onward from the hills of light,
- Our hearts with love aflame,
- We'll vanquish all the hosts of night
- In Jesus' conquering name.
