It Is Finished
There's a line that is drawn through the ages
On that line is that old rugged cross
On that cross, a battle is raging
For the gain of man's soul or His loss
The earth shakes with the force of that conflict
The sun refuses to shine
But there, 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
Oh, it is finished, and Jesus is Lord
Yet, in my heart, the battle is still raging
Not all the prisoners of war have come home
They were battlefields of my own making
I didn't know that the war had been won
Then I heard that the King of all ages
Had fought all the battles for me
And victory was mine for the asking
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
Oh, it is finished, and Jesus is Lord
It is finished, and Jesus is Lord
Jesus is Lord, Jesus is Lord!
