Author: James Rowe Hymnal: Coronation Hymns #39 (1913) First Line: Do you hear, O fainting soldier Refrain First Line: We are marching 'gainst the foe Lyrics: 1 Do you hear, O fainting soldier,
that sweet word which rends the skies?
It is "Victory!" It is "Victory!"
From the hearts of faithful comrades
in the field it doth arise,—
It is "Victory! Victory!
Chorus:
We are marching 'gainst the foe,
Striking harder ev'ry blow;
Soon the tempter and his army
from the field will have to go!
Rise, O fainting soldier, rise!
Hear the shout that rends the skies;
It is "Victory! Victory!
2 Do you see, O fainting soldier,
how the gospel banner waves?
It is "Victory!" It is "Victory!"
It is floating over thousands
who were once but feeble slaves!
It is "Victory! Victory!" [Chorus]
3 Lift your eyes, O fainting soldier,
see His army marching on!
It is "Victory!" It is "Victory!"
Sin is swiftly disappearing,
darkness fading into dawn;
It is "Victory! Victory!" [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [Do you hear, O fainting soldier]
It is "Victory"
