The battle is won

G’day! My Mum has been singing this for year and has been trying to find it as a song, anyone know a song that includes these lyrics:


The battle is won, by lifting Jesus, higher in the midst of thee.
.... sing and shout the victory!

Hi B_D

I found a blog that quoted this:
“The battle is won, by lifting Jesus higher in the midst of thee, joy, joy, joyous victory.”

You might want to contact the blogger to see if she has the full lyrics

Hope this is helpful. It's the only lead I could find

I sang this song in Vanuatu about 8 years ago. I can't remember the full song but I'm trying to track it down.

The battle is won by lifting Jesus higher, in the midst of thee, there's joy, joy, joyous victory.

The battle is won by lifting higher, sing and shout the victory
Whoa shout, shout for joy, whoa shout, shout for joy, shout for joy

Shout for joy till the ends of the earth.

From memory, this is a good start, as I said I'm trying to track it down. Ill come back and fill in the gaps when I can.

Hello from 2026! Came across this thread while looking for other information about this same song, so I figured, in case you're still interested in it, here's the full words. It's song 380 in Resource Chorus Music (supplement #5), and I have the sheet music here with me (which I didn't have while I was out and about, hence searching the internet). It's in the key of G, and the words are:

The battle is won by lifting Jesus higher in the midst of thee.
Joy, joy, joyous victory!
The battle is won by lifting Jesus higher in the midst of thee.
Sing and shout the victory!

In case you want to try playing it, the chords are:

(G) The battle is won by (G7) lifting Jesus (C) higher in the (Am7) midst of thee.
(G) Joy, joy, (Em) joyous victo(Am)ry! (D7)
The battle is (G) won by (G7) lifting Jesus (C) higher in the (Am7) midst of thee.
(G) Sing and (D7) shout the victo(C)ry (G)

And if it hasn't been taken down, you can hear it in this recording https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6fWLWP8z58A as the first song of the bracket.
