Show notes
**OVERCOMING** “Overcoming” is a classic 1970s-style country-rock song with melodic pedal steel guitar, Southern rock influences, and rich vocal harmonies. The song celebrates overcoming sin through faith in Jesus Christ, walking in the Spirit, taking up the cross, and persevering until the end. Drawing from the promises of Scripture, particularly Rev., it looks forward to Christ's return and eternal life with Him. **Rev. 2:7** — “To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.” **Galatians 5:16** — “Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.” **Luke 9:23** — “If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.” **1 John 5:4** — “For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.” **LYRICS** **Verse 1** Overcoming in this life, gonna put my trust in Him Overcoming in this life, gonna put my trust in Him Overcoming all my sin, gonna put my trust in Him Overcoming all my sin, gonna put my trust in Him **Chorus** Drink of the living water Feast on the living bread Take my place with the saints of God before the throne Gonna drink of the living water Gonna eat of the tree of life Gonna walk on the streets of gold with Jesus, that's heaven's delight **Verse 2** Giving all my heart to You, gonna put away all sin Giving all my love to You, gonna let You reign within Living all my life for You since I've been born again Living every day for You, overcoming till the end **Instrumental Break** **Verse 3** Walking in the Spirit now, gonna follow where You lead Picking up my cross, my Lord, gonna truly be made free Looking for Your soon return—I'll keep my eyes upon the prize Overcomers they will see Your Kingdom begin to rise **Outro** Overcoming all my sin, gonna put my trust in Him Overcoming all my sin, gonna put my trust in Him Gonna drink of the living water Gonna eat of the tree of life Gonna walk on the streets of gold with Jesus, that's heaven's delight Gonna drink of the living water Gonna eat of the tree of life Gonna overcome the devil by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of my testimony; and love not my life unto the death. --- © Shiloh Worship Music.
