New Life Worship Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Enthroned in the Father's love
Destined to die
Poured out for all mankind
God's only son
Perfect and spotless one
He never sinned
But suffered as if he did
All authority
Every victory is Yours
All authority
Every victory is Yours
Savior
Worthy of honor and glory
Worthy of all our praise
You overcame
Jesus
Awesome in power forever
Awesome and great is Your name
You overcame
Power in hand
Speaking the Father's plan
You're sending us out
Light in this broken land
All authority
Every victory is Yours
All authority
Every victory is Yours
We will overcome
By the blood of the Lamb
And the word of our testimony
Everyone overcome
The song “Overcome” by New Life Worship is a powerful proclamation of the victory of Jesus Christ over sin and death. The opening lyrics remind us that Jesus is seated above, enthroned in the Father’s love, and that He was destined to die for all mankind. These lyrics are a clear reference to Jesus’ death and resurrection, which brought victory over death and sin. The perfect and spotless one, Jesus never sinned, yet He suffered as if He did. This acknowledges the sacrifice Jesus made on the cross, taking on the sins of the world and dying in our place.
The chorus of the song declares that Jesus has all authority and every victory is His. This assertion reinforces the power and majesty of Jesus Christ, who has defeated death and is worthy of all honor and glory. The bridge of “Overcome” speaks to the power of Jesus’ words and plan. As believers, we are sent out to be a light in a broken world, empowered by the authority of Jesus Christ.
The lyrics of “Overcome” are uplifting and provide a powerful message of hope for all believers. This song invites us to trust in Jesus’ authority and to join in the victory that has already been won by Jesus Christ on the cross.
