On that line stands an old rugged cross
On that cross, a battle is raging
Or the gain a man's soul or it's loss
On one side, march the forces of evil
All the demons, and all the devils of hell
On the other, the angels of glory
And they meet on Golgotha's hill
The earth shakes with the force of the conflict
And the sun refuses to shine
There hangs God's son, in the balance
And then through the darkness he cries
It is finished, the battle is over
It is finished, there'll be no more war
It is finished, the end of the conflict
It is finished and Jesus is Lord
Yet in my heart, the battle was raging
Not all prisoners of war had come home
These were battlefields of my own making
I didn't know that the war had been won
Then I heard the king of the ages
Had fought all the battles for me
And that victory was mine for the claiming
And now praise his name, I am free
It is finished, the battle is over
It is finished, there'll be no more war
It is finished, the end of the conflict
It is finished and, Jesus is Lord
There's a line that is drawn through the ages On that line stands an old rugged cross On that cross, a battle is raging Or the gain a man's soul or it's loss On one side, march the forces of evil All the demons, and all the devils of hell On the other, the angels of glory And they meet on Golgotha's hill The earth shakes with the force of the conflict And the sun refuses to shine There hangs God's son, in the balance And then through the darkness he cries It is finished, the battle is over It is finished, there'll be no more war It is finished, the end of the conflict It is finished and Jesus is Lord Yet in my heart, the battle was raging Not all prisoners of war had come home These were battlefields of my own making I didn't know that the war had been won Then I heard the king of the ages Had fought all the battles for me And that victory was mine for the claiming And now praise his name, I am free It is finished, the battle is over It is finished, there'll be no more war It is finished, the end of the conflict It is finished and, Jesus is Lord Explain Request ×
