May Jesus be victorious, may He win every fight
May all the dark be driven out by Jesus’ holy light
May truth prevail, the gospel spread,
‘til all hear Jesus’ fame
And may we all be born again
through faith in Jesus’ name

When Satan comes against us
to kill, destroy and steal
We’ll put our trust in Jesus,
‘cause we know His power is real
His armor will protect us.
His strength will pull us through.
No one can snatch us from His hand.
His promises are true.

And when the fight ‘tween wrong and right
is raging in our mind
O may we pray like Jesus saying,
“Not my will but Thine.”
Regardless what we might have thought
or might have planned to do
Lord Jesus, do it Your way;
we put our trust in You.

May Jesus always have His way
each place beneath the sun
On earth just like in heaven,
O may His will be done
And may we all have ears to hear
and follow His command
And spread the news of Jesus’ love
to all in every land

May Jesus be victorious,
and rule in me today
In all I do, in all I think,
and each word that I say
‘Cause when we do it His way
we know that we’ll be blest
He loves us more than we can know
and His way is the best.

May Jesus be victorious,
may He win every fight
May all the dark be driven out
by Jesus’ holy light
May truth prevail, the gospel spread,
‘til Jesus comes again
In all the world and in my heart,
may Jesus always win
In all the world and in my heart,
may Jesus always win
