The war is over turn around
Lay your weapons on the ground
The smoke is fading before the light
The dead are coming back to life
He has made a way for us
Born for glory out of dust
Children held within the arms of Peace
He has made a way for all
Mercy waits where sinners fall
He is our Victory
The war is over His love has come
To call us daughters and sons
No longer orphans without a home
We have found where we belong
It is finished, it is done
The blood of Jesus overcomes
It is finished, He has won
He has won
It is finished, it is done
The blood of Jesus overcomes
It is finished, He has won
He has won
It is finished, it is done
The blood of Jesus overcomes
It is finished, He has won
He has won
He has made a way for us
Born for glory out of dust
Children held within the arms of Peace
He has made a way for all
Mercy waits where sinners fall
He is our Victory
He is our Victory
He is our Victory
