Representative Text

1 Unto him that overcometh
It is granted he may eat
Of the tree of life, whose fruitage
Is of paradise so sweet.

Refrain:
Unto him that overcometh
By the faith of Christ alone,
He will grant to sit beside him
With the Father in his throne.

2 He in Christ that overcometh
So the Holy Spirit saith,
Shall be surely left uninjured
By the dreadful second death. [Refrain]

3 Yea, for him that overcometh
Is the hidden manna saved,
And a stone of snowy whiteness,
With the secret name engraved. [Refrain]

4 He that overcometh truly,
In whose heart God’s precepts are,
Shall have power o’er the nations,
And shall have the morning star. [Refrain]

5 Unto him that overcometh
Christ will give a robe of white,
And his name before the angels
Shall be spoken with delight. [Refrain]

6 He thro’ Christ that overcometh
Shall a stable pillar stand,
With the name of God the Father
Carved thereon by his own hand. [Refrain]
