Talked about, lied on and criticized
Many tears fell from my eyes
I wondered how much can one man take
I wanted to retaliate

But God said:
Hold your peace, vengeance is Mine
Enemies will bow down in due time
Hold your peace, I'll fight your battles
Victory, victory shall be Mine
Victory, victory shall be Mine
Victory, victory shall be Mine

Stephen was a man who gave God his all
He knew the Lord would keep him from the fall
On the Lord Jesus Christ, Stephen kept his eyes
For the preaching of the gospel
He would surely die

But God said:
Hold your peace, vengeance is Mine
(Vengeance is Mine, yeah)
Enemies will bow down in due time
(Oh, yeah, you got to)
Hold your peace, I'll fight your battles
(Yes, I will)
Victory, victory shall be Mine
(I believe it shall be Mine)
Victory, victory shall be Mine
(In due time)
Victory, victory shall be Mine
(Hold your peace, yeah)
Hold your peace vengeance is Mine
Enemies will bow down in due time
Hold your peace, I'll fight your battles
(Yes, I will)
Victory, victory shall be Mine
(Even in the morning time)
Victory, victory shall be Mine
(It shall be Mine)
Victory, victory shall be Mine
Victory, victory

Yes, yes
A mighty fortress is our God
A bulwark never failing
In Him we are victorious
The blood goes on prevailing

Oh, victory, oh, victory
Won't you stand up on your feet
And sing along with me
Oh, victory, oh, victory
Won't you stand up on your feet
And sing along

Oh, victory, V-I-C-T-O-R-Y
Won't you stand up on your feet
And sing along with me
Oh, victory, oh, victory
Won't you stand up on your feet
And sing along
Victory's mine I know
The Bible tells me so
And if I hold my peace
It is mine indeed
Oh, victory, oh, victory
Oh, victory, oh, victory

You can have it if you want it
No matter what gets in your way
Just believe it and receive it
You can have a sweet victory
Oh, victory, oh, victory
(Yeah, oh, yeah, yeah)
Oh, victory, oh, victory

First you get it in your heart
And you get a brand-new start
You have victory in the morning
And even in the break of day
Oh, victory, oh, victory
(Yeah, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh, victory, oh, victory

Victory's mine I know
(Yeah)
The bible tells me so
(You'll be able to love your enemies)
And if I hold my peace
It is mine indeed
(Oh, yeah, yeah)
Oh, victory, oh, victory
(Oh, yeah, yeah)
Oh, victory, oh, victory
Oh, I don't know about you
But I need victory
So I can make it on my way
Oh, yeah, yeah...
