Full of the truth of God's Word, and much experience, Watchman Nee could write such a provacative and encouraging hymn.

A hymn unlocking the way to pray in victory. Thank You Lord for this precious hymn.
Spokane, WA, United States
When I had a rough day, I came on this site, because it alone has real Christian music that includes new song writers. This song about victory in Christ was just what I needed to remind me that it is not my fight, but that God is the One who will make me victorious as I trust in His Word and in His precious blood. How simple are the words and the music. How magnificent the Truth!
