Lyrics
Walking Through The World
Verse 1:
Look all around at the faces
Look all around what do you see
People in need of a saviour
People in need of someone to believe.
Verse 2:
There is a way that is right and true
There is a way that leads to life
There is a way that leads to the Father
There is a way it is through Christ.
Chorus:
Were more than conquerors; through Jesus, we triumph.
As we seize Jericho, singing praise to the Lord.
Hail His name forever; through Jesus, we triumph,
As we walk through the world, winning souls for the Lord.
Verse 3:
Through the scorching sun and the blazing cold,
He tests our faith as we walk through this wicked world.
Setting us on the path to victory, navigating these roads remains a mystery.
Chorus:
Were more than conquerors; through Jesus, we triumph.
As we seize Jericho, singing praise to the Lord.
Hail His name forever; through Jesus, we triumph,
As we walk through the world, winning souls for the Lord.
Verse 4:
We sing hallelujah to the Lord; Hes our comfort and rock in this world.
We surrender our hearts to the Lord; Hes our guide and only friend in this world.
Outro:
All who are hungry, in distress, or despair,
There is one we can put our trust in him.
Come to the Father through Jesus the Son; give Him praise.
This life has just begun.
