Author: Fanny J. Crosby Hymnal: Victory Songs #25 (1920) First Line: Good news, good news from the promised land! Refrain First Line: Victory! Victory! Lyrics: 1 Good news, good news from the promised land!
Good news from the golden shore,
Where the ransomed hosts with their harps in hand
Are shouting evermore!
Chorus:
Victory! Victory!
Glory to God for victory!
We’ll praise Him for the victory,
Thro’ Jesus Christ our Lord.
2 By faith we climb to the mountain’s brow,
And gaze on the clusters rare
Of the fruits that grow on the tree of life
For those who enter there. [Chorus]
3 No sin nor death in the promised land,
No toil for the weary soul,
But the glad new song of the blood-washed throng
In ceaseless joy shall roll. [Chorus]
4 No night of tears in the promised land,
From care we shall all be free;
We shall walk in white by the river clear,
The Lamb our light shall be. [Chorus] Topics: Encouragement; Future, The; Salvation and Sanctification; Warfare and Victory Languages: English Tune Title: [Good news, good news from the promised land!]
