The Church Will Overcome

The Church Will Overcome
Verse 1
Back in the days of the Church persecution (Lord, hear Your children in these troublesome times)
The devil sent the evil ones a powerful delusion (Lord, hear Your children in these troublesome times)
They killed God’s people and hated their religion
But the lions couldn’t tame it, the fire couldn’t quench it
Nero had a lot to learn
There are some things that just won’t burn!

Chorus 1
They placed their faith in Great God Jehovah (God of Abraham, Moses, and Elijah)
He had parted the sea and let the people cross over (God of Daniel and Job and Jeremiah)
The saints faced death in unbelievable ways
The song they were singing was “Amazing Grace”
The battle is already won
The blood-bought church will overcome

Verse 2
Now we’re engaged in a new revolution (Lord, hear Your children in these troublesome times)
We’re fighting false religion and there’s only one solution (Lord, hear Your children in these troublesome times)
We must hold fast to the faith of our convictions
The Bible is the only Truth that ever has existed
Jesus is still the only way
It’s time for us to stand up and say…

Chorus 2
We’ve placed their faith in Great God Jehovah (God of Abraham, Moses, and Elijah)
He’ll move every mountain when it’s time to cross over (God of Daniel and Job and Jeremiah)
God holds the world in the palm of His hand
He’ll get His people to the Promised Land
The battle is already won
The blood-bought church will overcome

The blood-bought church, the blood-bought church
