SUBJECT: SPIRITUAL WARFARE—THE OVERCOMER
METER: 8.5.8.5.D
AUTHOR: Witness Lee
COMPOSER: Philip P. Bliss

1Will you be an overcomer?
  Christ is calling now!
 Will you then be such a follower,
  Though you know not how?
Chorus  
  Will you be an overcomer?
   Will you make this choice?
  Christ is calling, Christ is calling,
   Listen to His voice!
2Will you be an overcomer?
  To the Lord be drawn!
 Keep the “first love,” never leave it,
  Till the break of dawn.
3Will you be an overcomer?
  On His life depend!
 Dare to suffer persecution,
  Faithful to the end.
4Will you be an overcomer?
  Testimony bear!
 Keep away from false religion,
  ”Hidden manna” share.
5Will you be an overcomer,
  Simple, real, and pure?
 Overcome all evil mixture,
  Ruling pow’r secure.
6Will you be an overcomer?
  Trust the living Lord!
 Keep your “garments” from the deadness,
  Win the life-reward.
7Will you be an overcomer?
  Never lukewarm be,
 Ne’er content with what you’ve gotten,
  More you need to see.
8Will you be an overcomer?
  Christ is calling still!
 Will you now be loyal to Him,
  His demand fulfill.
