Commissioned – Victory lyrics
Victory
(written by Mitchell Jones and Parkes Stewart)
(recorded by Commissioned)
Verse 1:
Talked about, lied on, and criticized,
many tears fell from my eyes.
I wondered how much can one man take,
I wanted to retaliate,
(but God said...)
Chorus 1:
Hold your peace,
vengeance is mine,
enemies will bow down in due time.
Hold your peace,
I'll fight your battles;
victory, victory shall be mine,
victory, victory shall be mine,
victory, victory shall be mine.
Verse 2:
Stephen was a man who gave God his all,
He knew the Lord would keep him from the fall.
On the Lord, Jesus Christ, Stephen kept his eyes,
for the Preaching of the gospel ,
He would surely die,
(but God said...)
Chorus 1
Chorus 2:
Hold your peace,
vengeance is mine,
enemies will bow down in due time.
Hold your peace,
I'll fight your battles;
victory, victory shall be mine,
victory, victory shall be mine,
victory, victory shall be mine,
victory, victory, yes, yes.
Bridge:
A mighty fortress is our God,
a bulwark never failing.
In Him we are victorious,
the blood goes on prevailing.
Oh victory, oh victory,
won't you stand up on your feet
and sing along with me.
Oh victory, oh victory,
won't you stand up on your feet
and sing along.
Oh victory,
V-I-C-T-O-R-Y,
won't you stand up on your feet
and sing along with me.
Oh victory, oh victory,
won't you stand up on Your feet
and sing along.
Vamp:
Victory's mine I know,
the Bible tells me so,
and if I hold my peace,
it is mine indeed;
oh victory, oh victory,
oh victory, oh victory.
