INTRO
VERSE 1
Now the darkness fades
Into new beginnings
As we lift our eyes
To a hope beyond
All creation waits
With an expectation
To declare the reign
Of the Lord our God
Into new beginnings
As we lift our eyes
To a hope beyond
All creation waits
With an expectation
To declare the reign
Of the Lord our God
CHORUS
We will not be moved
When the earth gives way
For the Risen One
has overcome
And for every fear
There’s an empty grave
For the Risen One has overcome
When the earth gives way
For the Risen One
has overcome
And for every fear
There’s an empty grave
For the Risen One has overcome
VERSE 2
Now the silence breaks
In the name of Jesus
As the heavens cry
Let the earth respond
All creation shouts
With a voice of triumph
To declare the reign
Of the Lord our God
In the name of Jesus
As the heavens cry
Let the earth respond
All creation shouts
With a voice of triumph
To declare the reign
Of the Lord our God
TURNAROUND
BRIDGE (2X)
He shall reign forever
Strongholds now surrender
For the Lord our God has overcome
Who can be against us
Jesus our defender
He is Lord and he has overcome
Strongholds now surrender
For the Lord our God has overcome
Who can be against us
Jesus our defender
He is Lord and he has overcome
OUTRO
Overcome - In the Bible [Verses & Devotional]
We are all faced with darkness and fear in our lives. But we can take comfort in the fact that Jesus has overcome all of these things. In the song Overcome by Elevation Worship, we are reminded that Jesus has overcome the darkness and fear in our lives.
The Bible tells us in Romans 8:37-39, “No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
This verse reminds us that no matter what darkness or fear we face, Jesus has overcome it all. He is our defender and our hope. We can trust in Him and know that He will never leave us.
The chorus of the song says, “We will not be moved when the earth gives way, for the Risen One has overcome. And for every fear there’s an empty grave, for the Risen One has overcome.” This is a powerful reminder that Jesus has overcome death and the grave. He has conquered all of our fears and given us hope.
We can take comfort in the fact that Jesus has overcome all of our darkness and fear. We can trust in Him and know that He will never leave us. He is our defender and our hope.
