11528. The Victory Side

1 I’m over in Canaan where riches abound,
Living on the victory side;
Each day going on to possess higher ground,
Living on the victory side.

Refrain:
Sing glory, hallelujah!
I’m living on the victory side;
Since Christ my soul hath sanctified,
I’m living on the victory side.

2 No longer by fears am I fettered and bound,
Living on the victory side;
Sweet freedom in service for Christ I have found,
Living on the victory side. [Refrain]

3 I walk in the sunshine of God’s holy light,
Living on the victory side;
The will of my Lord is my joy and delight,
Living on the victory side. [Refrain]

4 The Lord, whom I trust, is my strength and my song,
Living on the victory side;
No foes can alarm, since to Him I belong,
Living on the victory side. [Refrain]
