Overcoming the World
Everyone who believes,
As Christ as their savior;
Knows that each one receives,
From God His look of favor.
Because you are born from God,
Being His beloved child;
All who gives honor and laud,
Will be tender and mild.
In loving the Father you,
Also will love each other;
And to God remaining true,
With loving one another.
You continue to obey,
The commandments of the Lord;
With each and every day,
And never to be ignored.
For all that have been reborn,
Do know what this world is worth;
And merely here to sojourn,
In waiting for the new earth.
It is not a mystery,
That the Father really won;
As was given victory,
Through sacrificing His Son.
So down through the history,
To each one of whom believes;
They too will have victory,
Of eternal life receives.
