Lyrics
[Intro]
Are you ready?
Can you raise a shout of praise?
Let’s go! Listen...
[Part 1: The Battle Belongs to God]
The battle belongs to God
He's the Great I AM
The battle belongs to God
He's the Man of War
The battle belongs to God
It is not my own
All I have to do, is Hallelujah!
(Repeated by the Choir and Congregation)
The victory belongs to God
He's the Great I AM
The victory belongs to God
He's the Man of War
The victory belongs to God
We have overcome
All we have to do, is Hallelujah!
All power belongs to God
He's the Great I AM
All power belongs to God
He's the Man of War
All power belongs to God
My victory is sure
All I have to say, is Hallelujah!
[Part 2: You Are You]
You are You, You are You
You are You...
You are glorious
You are beautiful
You are powerful
You are wonderful
You are You...
You are glorious
You are mighty
You are faithful
You are You...
You are who You say You are
There's no other God like You
You're the Ancient of Days
Seated on the flaming Throne
You are You, You are You
You are You...
[Part 3: The Battle Belongs to God (Reprise)]
The battle belongs to God
He's the Great I AM
The battle belongs to God
He's the Man of War
The battle belongs to God
It is not my own
All I have to do, is Hallelujah!
[Part 4: Jehovah Nissi]
[Chorus]
You surround me, with many victories
Jehovah Nissi, You're my Banner
You go before me, You fight my battles
Jehovah Nissi! Jehovah Nissi!
[Verse 1]
You are the First, and the Last
That's why we call You Alpha, Omega
You own the world, You fill the universe
You made the things we see and cannot see
Your Love is great, Your mercy sure
Your Grace has done more than I could have done
When I was bound, You came and rescued me
You gave me light and took my darkness
(Chorus: You surround me...)
[Verse 2]
You are the same yesterday
The same today and same forever
You never change, You are reliable
My hiding place in times of trouble
You are the Christ, the Son of God
You bruised the serpent's head at Calvary
You took the keys, opened the prison doors
Crushing the power of death forever!
(Chorus: You surround me...)
[Part 5: God is Gone Up with a Shout]
God is gone up with a shout, with a trumpet sound (Hey!)
God is gone up with a shout, with a trumpet sound
God is gone up with a shout, with a trumpet sound
God is gone up with a shout, with a trumpet sound
(Chorus: You surround me...)
[Outro]
The battle belongs to God
He's the Great I AM
The battle belongs to God
He's the Man of War
The battle belongs to God
It is not my own
All I have to do, is Hallelujah!
