The Word

(album: The Word - 1984)

I was being overcome
Not being an overcomer
Allowing the one living in the world
To be stronger than the one in me
But I finally realized
I didn't have to be a loser
The blood of Jesus flowed through my veins
I could live in victory

I cried out, Jesus!
My, my Jesus, won't You help me
Please tell me how to live in victory
I cried, Jesus!
My, my Jesus, won't you help me
Please show me how to defeat the enemy

And He said, the Word, the Word
My precious love letter
Nothing could be better
For living in victory
And He said, the Word, the Word
That's why I'm inspired
So you could daily use it
To defeat the enemy

Just like a roaring lion
Satan comes a-prowling
Seeking who he may devour
Sometimes he's stalking me
With my back against the wall
There seems no escaping
Confusion grips my mind with fear
I call out endlessly

I cried, Jesus!
My, my Jesus, won't You help me
Please tell me how to live in victory
I cried, Jesus!
My, my Jesus, won't you help me
Please show me how to defeat the enemy

And He said, the Word, the Word
My precious love letter
Nothing could be better
For living in victory
And He said, the Word, the Word
That's why I'm inspired
So you could daily use it
To defeat the enemy

A lamp unto my feet
A light unto my pathway
It seem the more I get in the Word
The more it gets into me

The Word, the Word
My precious love letter
Nothing could be better
For living in victory
And He said, the Word, the Word
That's why I'm inspired
So you could daily use it
To defeat the enemy

He said, the Word, the Word
My precious love letter
Nothing could be better
For living in victory
And He said, the Word, the Word
That's why I'm inspired
So you could daily use it
To defeat the enemy

He said, the Word, the Word
My precious love letter
Nothing could be better
For living in victory
And He said, the Word, the Word
That's why I'm inspired
So you could daily use it
To defeat the enemy...
