Have we learned the secret of the Christian's pow'r

July 26

Have we learned the secret of the Christian’s pow’r?
Victory, victory, all the way along;
List’ning and obeying, trusting ev’ry hour,
Victory all along thro’ Jesus.

By the Word indwelling, “watching unto prayer,”
Victory, victory, all the way along;
Resting, while we serve Him, in His keeping care,
Victory all along thro’ Jesus.

Let Him do the planning, let Him use our days,
Victory, victory, all the way along;
Yielding to His Spirit, His shall be the praise;
Victory all along thro’ Jesus.

Only “earthen vessels,” His the treasure rare,
Victory, victory, all the way along;
Humbly overcoming,-then the mansions fair;
Victory all along thro’ Jesus.

Chorus
Victory, victory, all the way along,
Lift Immanuel’s banner, marching on with song;
Christ shall have the kingdom, right shall conquer wrong:
Victory thro’ Jesus, all the way along.
