| 1. His be the Victor's name Who fought the fight alone; Triumphant saints no honour claim, His conquest was their own.
2. By weakness and defeat, He won the meed and crown; Trod all our foes beneath His feet By being trodden down.
3. He Satan's power laid low; Made sin, He sin o'erthrew; Bowed to the grave, destroyed it so, And death by dying slew.
4. Bless, bless the Conqueror slain, Slain in His victory; Who lived, who died, who lives again --- For thee, His church, for thee!
