The Clark Sisters were born and raised in Detroit, Michigan. They each began singing at an early age and by the late 1960s they were all performing together in church services, usually singing songs written and arranged by their mother. A few years later, Dr. Mattie Moss Clark turned over control of the group to Twinkie, who would then go on to write, arrange, conduct and produce all of the Clark Sisters recordings. In 1973, the sisters recorded their first album, Jesus Has A Lot to Give, on their uncle's local label Billmo Records.
2. The Clark Sisters also refers to a vocal quartet from the 1950s and 60s, also known as the Sentimentalists when they sang with Tommy Dorsey. They recorded an album entitled ":Beauty Shop Beat" in 1960, containing barbershop standards such as ":Waiting for the Robert E. Lee", "Coney Island Baby", and "That Old Gang of Mine".

The Clark Sisters Lyrics

Victory over your life
Every now and then
It is hard to see
But you've
Got to
Decree
And see
Don't be dismayed
God knows your needs
But you've
Got to
Decree
And see
Victory
It may appear like you've been locked down
But with God, you won't be bound
Just open up your mouth
Speak a word over your life
No fear, we walk by faith and not by sight
Stop speaking negativity in your atmosphere
Just walk in your authority, for the Lord is near
I serve notice to the enemy
Oh, you can't have my family
You can't have my mind
You can't have my life
'Cause he's the same
I come
That you might have life more abundantly
Prosper
And be in good health
God is gonna win again
We shall prosper
And be in good health
We shall prosper
A-a-a-a- and be in good health
The Clark Sisters' song "Victory" is a powerful declaration of faith and affirmation of overcoming obstacles in life. The opening lyrics, "We declare victory, Victory over your life" set the theme for the entire song. The repetitive use of the word "decree" emphasizes the importance of speaking life-affirming words and believing in oneself. The song urges listeners not to be dismayed by challenges but to trust in God and walk by faith, not by sight.
The lyrics acknowledge that life can be difficult, and one might feel "locked down." However, the song reminds us that God's power knows no bounds, and with Him, we are never truly bound. The song also emphasizes the power of words and thoughts, encouraging listeners to speak positive words and walk in their God-given authority. The lyrics serve as a declaration of strength and a call to persevere through hard times.
