BLUE HYMNAL SIMPSON ORIGINAL (Coming King Country) "Jesus Gives to Us the Victory"

Описание: The 1897 edition of “Hymns of the Christian Life” includes a Preface that begins with the following words: “The musical taste of our day is in a state of transition… the people WILL have new tunes and hymns that move in a more spirited time than those which our fathers sang.”

These observations were true then and remain relevant today. The hymns of A. B. Simpson have been bringing the message of Christ as Savior, Sanctifier, Healer, and Coming King into the pews of Alliance churches for well over 130 years. Among the most enduring of hymnals is the 1936 edition, commonly referred to as “The Blue Hymnal,” which many Alliance churches used well into the 1970s.

However, with the rising use of audio-visual technology in most Alliance churches, the hymnal has nearly disappeared, seemingly taking Simpson's hymns along with it. The BLUE HYMNAL SIMPSON series represents an effort to faithfully place Simpson’s lyrics into the “new tunes” of our day, allowing the heart and passion of Simpson to be expressed through music once again.

Glory to His Name!

JESUS GIVETH US THE VICTORY

There's a battle raging in the heavenly places,
Sin and death and sickness with Satan leading on:
With the hosts of earth and hell arrayed against us,
How in all our weakness shall the fight be won?

Jesus gives to us the victory,
He who overcame on Calvary,
Overcomes again in you and me.
Hallelujah! Jesus gives the victory!

Faith can hear our Captain calling from the heavens,
"Courage, brother, I have overcome for you,
Fear not! I am with you, I will never fail you,
Trusting in my promise, you shall conquer too."

Jesus gives to us the victory,
He who overcame on Calvary,
Overcomes again in you and me.
Hallelujah! Jesus gives the victory!

We are led by One who never lost a battle,
And our adversary is a conquered foe;
We are more than conquerors, through our Captain's triumph;
Let us shout the victory as we onward go.

Jesus gives to us the victory,
He who overcame on Calvary,
Overcomes again in you and me.
Hallelujah! Jesus gives the victory!

Let us take the victory, over Satan's kingdom,
Over sickness, sorrow, self and sin;
Let us bear the banner, over the lands of darkness
Till the foes' last stronghold we for Christ shall win.

Jesus gives to us the victory,
He who overcame on Calvary,
Overcomes again in you and me.
Hallelujah! Jesus gives the victory!

Jesus gives to us the victory,
He who overcame on Calvary,
Overcomes again in you and me.
Hallelujah! Jesus gives the victory!
