When the hosts of Israel, Led by God,
Round the walls of Jehrico softly trod;
Trusting in the Lord,
They felt the conqueror's tread,
Refrain
By faith they saw the Victory a-head.
Victory a-head! Victory ahead!
Thro' the blood of Jesus, Victory ahead;
Trusting in the Lord,
I hear the conqueror's tread,
By faith I see the victory ahead!
David, with a shepherd's sling and five stones,
Met the giant on the field all alone;
Trusting in the Lord,
He knew what God had said,
Daniel prayed unto the Lord thrice each day,
Then unto the lions den led the way;
Trusting in the Lord,
He did not fear or dread,
When like those who've gone before to that land,
By death's river cold and dark I shall stand;
Trusting in the Lord,
I will not fear or dread,
