Jesus, Reign

Jesus, reign; my life control
Continually Thy name extol.
Guard me from the Tempter’s power.
Keep me by Thy hand each hour,
Keep me by Thy hand each hour.

Jesus, reign; for I am weak.
Always, e’er, Thy strength I seek.
Though the enemy taunt and jeer,
I shall have no need to fear,
I shall have no need to fear.

Jesus, reign; my body, mind,
Soul, possessions, all are Thine.
Use them that the world may see
That Christ rules and lives in me.
That Christ rules and lives in me.

Jesus, reign; through life’s long day
O’er my spirit hold full sway.
‘Till in heav’n when life is past
I shall reign with Thee at last
I shall reign with Thee at last.

A Child of God and Free from Sin

A child of God and free from sin,
Redeemed by Calvary.
I died with Christ upon the cross
And through Him I am free.
Chorus

Chorus:
Through Christ I am free;
Through Christ I am free.
Dead to sin, alive through Christ
As through Christ I am free.

A child of God and free from sin,
I bear this guilt no more
No condemnation I shall dread
Since I died with my Lord.
Chorus

A child of God and free from sin,
Dominion, sin has not.
I walk in newness of live and heart
For with His blood I am bought.

He giveth us vict’ry o’er powers of night.

Ye Shall Overcome the World

Saints of God, fresh courage take,
Ye shall overcome the world.
Born of God, through grace, by faith.
Ye shall overcome the world.
Fight bravely with the Sword
Depending on your Lord.
Eternal – your reward.
Ye shall overcome the world.

Joy in Christ, the battle’s His,
Ye shall overcome the world.
He your Help and Vict’ry is;
Ye shall overcome the world.
Ye fight not flesh and blood
But fight ye foes of God.
With His whole armor shod,
Ye shall overcome the world.

Rise up take your battle arms.
Ye shall overcome the world
Safe in Christ, by no man harmed
Ye shall overcome the world.
Stand, therefore in His might
Defeating pow’rs of night.
Christ by you in the fight,
Ye shall overcome the world.

Sound the trumpet, n’er retreat!
Ye shall overcome the world
Satan and his host defeat;
Ye shall overcome the world.
Saints, on to higher ground
‘Till in His likeness found.
Loud still His promise sounds:
“Ye shall overcome the world!”

Though ye may be tempted sore
Ye shall overcome the world
Drawing strength from His rich store
Ye shall overcome the world.
Stand firmly on His name.
Boldly His promise claim:
“Like as I overcame,
Ye shall overcome the world!”
