My Victory Is With Jesus

[Verse 1]
Doctor shook his head that evening
Said
"Son
You’re out of time"
But Mama prayed right through that midnight
Heaven stepped across that line
[Chorus]
My victory is with Jesus
Every battle
Every fight
When the valley tries to drown me
He’s my fire in the night
I don’t stand on my own strength
Blood-bought
I’m walking free
My victory is with Jesus
And Jesus stands with me
[Verse 2]
Bills stacked high up on the table
Fear was knocking on my door
He put food there in the pantry
Turned my little into more
[Chorus]
My victory is with Jesus
Every battle
Every fight
When the valley tries to drown me
He’s my fire in the night
I don’t stand on my own strength
Blood-bought
I’m walking free
My victory is with Jesus
And Jesus stands with me
[Bridge]
From that rugged hill called Calv’ry
To this red clay Georgia ground
Same strong hand that rolled the stone back
Lifts me up when I fall down (hallelujah)
[Chorus]
My victory is with Jesus
Every battle
Every fight
When the valley tries to drown me
He’s my fire in the night
I don’t stand on my own strength
Blood-bought
I’m walking free
My victory is with Jesus
And Jesus stands with me

Southern gospel quartet feel with male vocals; mid-tempo shuffle groove, piano and organ trading fills, walking bass, and tight three-part harmonies on the hook. Verses stay intimate with just piano and bass; chorus swells with full choir, claps, and a touch of slide guitar. Big key change on final chorus for a church-shouting finish., southern gospel
