1. I dare not be defeated
  With Calvary in view,
  Where Jesus conquered Satan,
  Where all His foes He slew;
  Come, Lord, and give the vision
  To nerve me for the fight,
  Make me an overcomer,
  Clothed with Thy Spirit's might.
(Chorus:)
  A victor, a victor!
  Because of Calvary.
  Make me an overcomer,
  A conqu'ror, a conqu'ror, Lord, in Thee.
2. I dare not be defeated
  Since Christ, my conquering King
  Has called me to the battle
  Which He did surely win.
  Come, Lord, and give me courage,
  Thy conquering Spirit give,
  Make me an overcomer,
  In power within me live.
3. I dare not be defeated,
  When Jesus leads me on
  To press through hellish regions
  To share with Him His Throne;
  Come, Lord, and give Thy soldier
  The power to wield the sword,
  Make me an overcomer
  Through Thine inerrant Word.
(Chorus:)
  A victor, a victor!
  Because of Calvary.
  Make me an overcomer,
  A conqu'ror, a conqu'ror, Lord, in Thee.
4. I dare not be defeated,
  Just at the set of sun,
  When Jesus waits to whisper,
  "Well done, beloved, well done";
  Come, Lord, bend from the Glory,
  On me Thy Spirit cast,
  Make me and overcomer,
  A victor to the last.
