Great God. thy holy name we praise,
For all thy mercies past;
Though foes impede us in thy ways,
We shall o'ercome at last.
Should all th' envenomed troops of hell
Unite, our hope to blast;
In Christ 'tis fixed, this truth we tell,
We shall o'ercome at last.
Though gloomy death alarm our fears,
And us in darkness cast;
Yet still Jehovah's word declares,
We shall o'ercome at last.
Though unbelief, that cursed foe,
Attempt to bind us fast;
Christ will not let his purchase go,
We shall o'ercome at last.
Jesus, our captain, leads us on,
Till Jordan's streams are past;
And when we reach our heavenly home,
We'll sing—o'ercome at last.
