Overcome

First verse
To him that overcomes I will grant to eat freely from the tree of life.
He will not be hurt by the second death he will live with me in paradise.
He that has an ear the spirit says to hear,
listen carefully to what I say and you will overcome.
You will overcome.

Second verse
To him that overcomes I will freely give a stone with a brand new name.
He will walk with me in white in holy robes of light and none will ever see his shame.
He that has an ear the spirit says to hear.
Listen carefully to what I say
and you will overcome.
You will overcome.

Chorus
For in Him there is power to live holy there is faith for righteousness.
In Him there is victory to conquer every sin and nothing less.
That’s why we shall overcome. That’s why we shall overcome.

Third verse
To him that overcomes I will make of him a pillar in the house of God.
I will write on him the name of the New Jerusalem which will come to earth from up above.
He that has an ear the spirit says to hear.
Listen carefully to what I say and you will overcome.
Yes you will overcome.

Chorus
For in Him there is power to live holy there is faith for righteousness.
In Him there is victory to conquer every sin and nothing less.
That’s why we shall overcome. That’s why we shall overcome.

Fourth verse
To him that overcomes I will give the right to sit down with me on my throne.
And because I overcame, together we will reign and walk among the fiery stones.
He that has an ear the spirit says to hear.
Listen carefully to what I say and you will overcome.
You will overcome.
By his blood we’ll overcome.
In Jesus Christ we’ll overcome.

      Are you a song writer? Where can I hear your work? I was in ST. Lucia back in December of 2014. I don’t know when I’ll return, but maybe when I do return, we may have the opportunity to sing together.
      I guess I should ask you if you still live in ST. Lucia.

      God bless you sister.

      1. Hello Neville,

        I am just seeing this message. I currently leave in the U.S. I pray that I will be able to meet you someday and is looking forward to us singing a song together whether here or in the earth made new.

        Your Sister in Christ,
        Stacy
