_ _ _ _ Another song that I want to say is, _ [C] well it was included in our Christian Warfare, you remember

Sing the harmony part with [Eb] me. _ _
_ [Fm] _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ _ _ Encamped along [Fm] the hills [Bb] of light, ye Christian [Eb] soldiers rise,
and press the [Fm] battle air.
[Bb] The flight will veil the [Eb] glowing _ sky, [Bb] against the foes in
[Eb] the valley below.
[Bb] Let [Eb] all our [C] strength be [Dm] heard.
[Eb] Faith is the victory [Ab] that _ [Eb] _ _ _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ [C] _ [Eb] overcomes the _ world.
Faith [Bb] is the victory, [Fm] faith _ is the _ [Eb] victory, [Ab] _ [C] a [Eb] glorious [Ab] victory [Eb] that _ [Bb] overcomes [Eb] the world.
You know [Bb] musical memories?
[Fm] As I was playing that I thought now I do I tell you what this
[Db] reminds me of and I think I want to.
_ _ When I was [Ab] just learning to play the piano, it's been quite
some time.
_ I have told you that we paid my piano teacher 50 cents a lesson.
Tells you how long ago.
[F] I was trying my best as just a kid to play this.
_ I had so much trouble with the time.
Now if you're
a musician [Eb] you'll know what I mean. _
[Ab] Somehow _ [Fm] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _
I just had trouble with the 6-8 [Bbm] time,
[Ab] but I finally practiced until [Db] I got it.
[Dm] So that's what [Ab] reminded me today of when I was practicing
these blessed old songs.
_ _ His [D] banner [Bbm] over us, [Eb] his love, our word, the [Ab] word of God.
_ We tread the [Bbm] road the [Eb] saints above with shouts of _ [Ab] triumphs _ drawed.
By [Eb] faith they'd like a [Ab] world
when's breath [Eb]
swept on [Ab] us so [Eb] every field.
[Ab] The faith by which [Db] they conquered [Ab] _ [Dm] death _ _ [Ab] is [Bbm] still
our [Ab] shining _ _ [Eb] shield.
[Ab] Faith [Cm] is the victory, [G] _ _
[Eb] faith is the [Ab] _ [Db] victory. _
No [Ab] glorious _ [C] victory [Ab] that [Eb] _
[Ab] overcomes
the world.
[Bbm] _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ [Db] _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _
[Ab] Let's do them all.
_ On [B] every hand [Bbm] the [Eb] foe we find drawn up in [Ab] dread of ray.
Let tense
[F] of ease [Bbm] be left [Eb] behind and onward to [Ab] the _ fray.
_ [Eb] _
Salvation's helmet on [Ab] each head [Eb] with [Ab] truth of
grit [Eb] above.
[G] _ _ _ [Ab]
The earth shall tremble [Db] _ in [Ab] our dread _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ [Ab]
and [Fm] echo with [Ab] our _ [Eb] shout.
_ [Ab] Faith is the [Eb] victory,
faith [Db] _ [Eb] is the [Ab] victory. _
[Db] Oh [Ab] glorious _ [Fm] victory [Ab]
that [Eb] _ [Ab] overcomes the world. _
_ [Eb] _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] _ [Ab] To [B] him that _ [Bbm] overcomes [Eb] the foe white raiment [Ab] shall be given.
Before the [Bbm] angels he [Eb] shall know
his name confessed [Ab] in _ heaven.
Then [Eb] onward from the [Ab] hills of light [Eb] our hearts [Fm] with love [Eb] aflame
[G] _
_ [Ab] will vanish all [Db] the hosts [Ab] of night [Dm] _ _
_ [Ab] in [Bbm] Jesus _ [Ab] conquering _ [Bb] name.
