when the battle is over

don't wait till the battle is over shout now. you know in the end you're gonna win. when you're burdened down with the cares of life and you're striving seems in vain. hold you head up high

your deliverance is nigh. when the battle is over when the battle is over when the battle is over. we're going home. don't wait till the battle is over shout now. you know in the end you're gonna win. don't wait till the battle is over shout now. you know in the end you're gonna win. hallelujah. hallelujah. hallelujah. ha-lle-lujah going up to glory

there to sing and shout. ain't nobody there to put me out. gonna thank him for the rain

gonna thank him for the pain

gonna thank him for the trials he brought me through. what is the highest praise? what is the highest praise? what is the highest praise? when the battle is over when the battle is over when the battle is over. we're going home. why should i wait? why should i wait? i won't have to wait. i won't have to wait. going to praise him right now praise him right now. gonna thank him for the rain

gonna thank him for the pain

gonna thank him for the trials he brought me through. gonna thank him when i'm happy. gonna thank him when i'm sad. gonna thank him when i'm lonely because he has made me glad. hallelujah

when the battle is over when the battle is over when the battle is over when the battle is over when the battle is over. we're going home.
