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!
Refrain
