Verse 1

This world is one great battlefield,

with forces all arayed;

if in my heart I do not yield,

I'll overcome someday.

I'll overcome someday (some day),

I'll overcome someday;

if in my heart I do not yield,

I'll overcome someday.

Verse 2

Both seen and unseen powers

join to drive my soul astray,

but with God's word, a sword of mine,

I'll overcome someday.

I'll overcome someday (some day),

I'll overcome someday;

but with God's word, a sword of mine,

I'll overcome someday.

Verse 3

A thousand snares are set for me,

and mountains in my way;

if Jesus will my leader be,

I'll overcome someday.

I'll overcome someday (some day),

I'll overcome someday;

if Jesus will my leader be,

I'll overcome someday.

Verse 4

I fail so often when I try,

my Savior to obey;

it pains my hear and then I cry,

Lord, make me strong someday.

Lord, make me strong someday (some day),

Lord, make me strong someday;

it pains my hear and then I cry,

Lord, make me strong someday.

Verse 5

My mind is not to do the wrong,

but walk the narrow way;

I'm praying as I journey on,

to overcome someday.

To overcome someday (someday),

to overcome someday;

I'm praying as I journey on,

to overcome someday.

Verse 6

Though many a time no signs appear,

of answer when I pray;

my Jesus says I need not fear,

He'll make it plain someday.

I'll be like Him someday (someday),

I'll be like Him someday;

my Jesus says I need not fear,

He'll make it plain someday.
