Sweet Victory Lyrics

Twisted thorns, a mocking crown

Symbol of a fallen earth

Son of Man, you came down

To raise us up by breaking Eden's curse

A purple robe, a mocking sign

Symbol of our Heavenly King

Royal blood, from David's line

Our High Priest forever reigning

You are reigning

When all is said, when all is done

The battle fought and the victory won

O who am I, that for my sake

You would take frail flesh and die

A whipping post, a cross of wood

Symbols of the world's rejection

But there's salvation in your blood

And there is triumph in your resurrection

With your last breath, the earth, it shook and trembled

The powers of darkness in the air assembled

Skies darkened as Satan crumbled

Tombs were opened as the thunder rumbled

Sweet Victory

O what a mystery

That you would die for me

My light in the darkness
