We Have Won

Curled up in their prison cells
They shivered from the cold
Tortured for the cause of Christ
Yet peace was in their souls
For years they were in shackles
That cut their hands and feet
The torture of a Roman jail
For preaching in the streets

Then suddenly, the soldiers came
And grabbed one of the brothers
He knew death was waiting out that door
Yet He called out to the others

We have won, we have won
Oh, through the blood of Jesus
We have won
It will ring out through the ages
We'll endure though evil rages
Christians, stand courageous
We have won

Through trials and persecution
And burning at the stake
Oh, they would not surrender
God's soldiers kept their faith
And like those Christian brothers
Who offered up their lives
They will boldly pledge to fight on
As we press toward the prize

Though Satan and his army
Stand and march against us
They won't prevail
They're doomed to fail
Before the power of Jesus

We have won, we have won
Oh, through the blood of Jesus
We have won
It will ring out through the ages
We'll endure though evil rages
Christians, stand courageous

We have won, we have won
Oh, through the blood of Jesus
We have won
It will ring out through the ages
And we'll endure though evil rages
Oh, Christians, stand courageous

We have won, we have won
Oh, through the blood of Jesus
We have won
It will ring out through the ages
We'll endure though evil rages
Christians, stand courageous
Oh, we have won

Yes, we have won
We can stand courageous
'Cause we have won
