Song Lyrics
The Defeated Foe
Verse 1
On the cross, a battle unseen,
Christ our King, pure and serene.
The enemy thought victory was near,
But in that moment, Christ conquered fear.
Chorus
The Defeated Foe, under His feet laid low,
Jesus, our Victor, His triumph we show.
Disarmed and shamed, the powers of night,
In His cross, we find our might.
Verse 2
No chains can hold, no lie can stand,
Against the power of His pierced hand.
He rose in glory, the grave denied,
In His victory, we are sanctified.
Chorus
The Defeated Foe, under His feet laid low,
Jesus, our Victor, His triumph we show.
Disarmed and shamed, the powers of night,
In His cross, we find our might.
Bridge
Nailed to the cross, our sins and fears,
In His resurrection, freedom appears.
The enemy defeated, a spectacle made,
By Jesus’ blood, our debt is paid.
Chorus
The Defeated Foe, under His feet laid low,
Jesus, our Victor, His triumph we show.
Disarmed and shamed, the powers of night,
In His cross, we find our might.
Outro
In every battle, this truth we hold,
In Christ, we’re brave, in Him, we’re bold.
The Defeated Foe, our anthem’s cry,
In Jesus’ name, we lift high.
Pray that believers would walk in confidence and break agreement with lies of fear and defeat. You are more than a conqueror—walk in freedom, clothed in the triumph of Christ.Spiritual Engagement
