Chords for Victory Is Sweet: The Believers

I will be your hero tonight.
That's going to be reality someday.
I believe that.
I really do.
My, my, what a joy to be here tonight.
This little lady, we're proud of her.
She comes up to her barefooted.
I'm not mad at her [E] if she was barefooted.
That's been 26 years ago.
_ But I appreciate her so much.
This is my wife Donna.
And I'm so thankful for her and for her testimony.
_ What's your name of these rest of these guys?
Well, I don't even know where the women are.
We're the ladies.
[N] _ _ This is my husband before I leave him out.
Before I leave him out.
Dallas Brock plays the keyboard.
_ _ _ Junior Perry on the far left.
I believe this is his home stomping ground. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Junior Perry.
_ His name was Brother Ledford Perry.
In case some of y'all remember him.
And he lives now up in Mount Sterling, Kentucky.
And his wife Judy's with _ _ _ _ _ _ Reynolds.
The one that was smiling, doesn't smile,
and most of the league.
And if _ _ _ _ _ _ you get to talk to him tonight,
talk to him but share him.
Because he'll stay, talk to you 45 minutes. _ _
_ Experience the love of the Lord
that comes through that man.
This guy right here sings the bass.
He sings a lot of league.
He's our pastor, Brother James Hodgson. _ _
We're _ _ just so thankful to be here tonight.
And I like what they said.
It's all about him [A] tonight. _
Forget those [D] things that easily beset us.
[A] Let's press toward the mark of God. _
And let's just [D] center our minds on him tonight.
And I think about that song we just [A] sang.
I'll lay my crown at the [D]
master's feet.
You know, one of these [A] days,
people don't believe in the Lord they [Gb] say.
And they don't believe that and other.
[B] But they're going to bow.
[A] And they're going to know that he is king of kings
and Lord of lords.
And I'm so thankful to know that I'll get [D] to
lay my crowns and whatever [A] I have at his feet
and give him the praise that he deserves
because we're so limited here.
This _ [D] song that we're going to sing
[A] is requested from back here.
It's about having [E] victory tonight.
Have you got [A] victory?
Raise your hand if you've got victory. _
I'm glad everybody's saved now. _
_ _ [D] This talks about victory.
And Dallas gave a little bit of
_ [Abm]
[A] I don't know, maybe he did, about my testimony.
But I've been [Bm] here before
several times and gave [A] my testimony
about _ maybe stuff that
[E] hasn't never heard it.
When I was 27,
I [D] got this disease.
I've had to deal with
the Lord as a young child.
[A] Growing up in church.
And I said,
[E] Lord, if you'll make a way for me
_ [A] _ to be
what this [D] man or this woman has
in their [A] testimony,
_ _ I would tell it because they're not telling
what God's done for them.
And I wanted
to share something other than
thank you Lord, I'm saved.
But [Dm] you know what?
[A] In just a minute you'll realize [D] why
I say thank you Lord, I'm saved.
Because he allowed me to go through trials
in my life that took [A] my eyesight
and I had
no sight at all.
And [D] all I could do was
look up with my heart, but then
my eyes seen more clearly than anything
[A] that they'd ever seen.
Knowing that
he wants to be number one in your life.
[D] I went through several surgeries
[A] with this disease.
The
[D] Lord restored pinhole back in my [Am] left eye.
I give him praise for what I had.
[D] One of these days when I make it to heaven,
these little [Eb] eyes will be [A] perfect and I'll
see heaven.
And [D] that'll be
the most _ wonderful time
of my [A] life is when these little eyes open.
Went through several surgeries, [Ab] went
on life [A] support and a coma, fighting
for my life.
Another [D] time
with the same disease, woke
up and I [A] was paralyzed from my neck [Dm] down.
I give God praise
[A] and I thank him for saving my [Abm] soul.
That's the most [D] important thing that you'll ever say.
And this song talks about
[A] having the victory when you're laying
in your bed at night and you think I'm
all alone and [Gb] there's no one here
to help me.
[A] And poor
Penny Mae, _ [D] think there's
someone else out [A] there struggling probably
worse.
But you have victory
in the Lord.
He'll be your friend.
He'll go where no one else can go
with you.
When I'm _ [D] broken
from _ the battle
_ _ [A] and I've [D] lost _ another [A] _
_ _ round,
Satan _ [D] whispers to _ [B] my troubled _ [A] soul,
just lay your _ [E] armor down. _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ _ Satan whispers to my troubled soul,
[A] Where are those [Gbm] you
loved [A] and _ _ trusted?
Look _ _ [D] around you [A] there all _ _ gone.
Would it be _ [D] easy to [A] _ surrender _ _ when you're
_ [E] standing _ [Bm] all [A] alone? _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
Then I bowed
[D] my _ [A] head in sadness _ as
I [D] pondered _ what to [A] _ do. _
_ I've been in
[D]
God's [A] army for
so long and
I've been a [E] soldier _ truly.
[Abm] _ _ [E] _ _ _ [Bm] _
But [A] I _ [D] hear
a [A] voice from heaven,
_ singing, Be
[D] a man [A] in his _ _ life.
Lift your head
[D] and you're [A] taken _ courage.
_ Turn your [E] eyes toward _ [A] the sky.
_ _ _ _ _
And I see a great man
[D] _ angels kept
[A] all around _ _ _ me.
[D] I see [A] the _ captain [B] rising
up, the challenge [E] to be. _
_ _ And [A] oh, I save _ [D] from
harm when I'm [A] touching Jesus.
_ _ [D] _ _ The [E] battle
[A] is his, [D] the victory
[A] is mine, [E] and victory
[A] is sweet. _ _ _
And I
see a great _ [D] man
_ angels kept
[A] all around _ _ me.
I see
the captain _ [B] rising
up, the challenge [E] to be. _
_ _ And oh,
I [A] save _ [D] from
harm when I'm [A] touching _ _ _ [D] Jesus.
Oh, the battle
[A] is [D] his, the victory
[A] is mine, and victory is sweet. _ _
[D] The [A] battle
is his, [D] the victory
[A] is mine, [E] and victory [A] _ is _ _ _ sweet.
_ _ Thank you.
