Overcomers (3:07)[E03-8]
Two thousand years ago He came...to bear a cross of guilt and shame
That's the price He had to pay...to save us from our sinful way
And though He wasn't well received...He brought new life to all who believed
By conquering death on this dying earth...and giving us second birth
Now we're overcomers 'cause He overcame
Overcomers...'cause He overcame
When we believe in Jesus' name
We're overcomers 'cause He overcame
He died for you and me...so we could live eternally
Oh, the sky was dark for three hours...on that day when Satan's powers
Seemed to prevail, and all was lost...as Jesus hung on a cross
But then on the third day, according to plan...the Lamb of God...the Son of Man
Rose again, alive from the dead...just the way He had said
Now we're overcomers 'cause He overcame
Overcomers...'cause He overcame
When we believe in Jesus' name
We're overcomers 'cause He overcame
He died for you and me...so we could live eternally
And to this very day He extends to us the way
The way of victory...because He wants us to be
Overcomers 'cause He overcame
When we believe...believe in His name
We're overcomers 'cause He overcame (2 bar pause)
Jesus died for you and me...so we could live eternally (2 bar pause)
We're overcomers 'cause He overcame
When we believe...believe in His name
We're overcomers 'cause He overcame
He died for you and me...so we could live eternally...eternally

Human government bears the same relation to hell as the church bears to heaven. (David Lipscomb, On Civil Government, 72).
