Lyrics
Verse 1
When I reach the end of my own strength
That's when You step in
And prove Your faithfulness
I remember what my weapon is
And with lifted hands
Watch You move again
Pre-Chorus
Are you not the God who is in heaven
The One who reigns forever?
My eyes are on You
My eyes are on You, Lord
Chorus
You fight the battle
You get the glory
Here come the angels
Here comes the victory
The enemy is outnumbered
Outnumbered, outnumbered
You fight the battle
You get the glory
Verse 2
I don't have to do this by myself
When I call Your name
I have heaven's help
I will lift my eyes and look again
To the King of All
Who has called me friend
Pre-Chorus (Repeat)
When the battle comes I will remember
You're my Great Defender
My eyes are on You
My eyes are on You, Lord
Bridge
Who can withstand Jehovah?
Who can compare? There's no one
Mountains will bow to Your greatness
Cause they know what Your name is

Meaning & Inspiration
“Outnumbered” by Lakewood Music is a song about trusting God in battle. The first verse describes reaching the end of one’s own strength, which is when God steps in and proves faithful. The singer remembers that praise is the weapon, and watches the Lord move with lifted hands.
The pre-chorus asks, “Are you not the God who is in heaven, the One who reigns forever?” and keeps the singer’s eyes on Him, which is close to 2 Chronicles 20:6 and 20:12, where the king admits the people have no power but look to God. The chorus adds the central claim: God fights the battle and gets the glory, so the enemy is outnumbered. That recalls Exodus 14:14 and 2 Kings 6:16.
The second verse stresses that the singer does not have to do it alone, and the bridge asks who can withstand Jehovah, with mountains bowing to His greatness. The song is a confident declaration that victory belongs to God.
