Walter Hawkins - When The Battle Is Over lyrics

rate me

[Chorus 1:]

Don't wait 'till the battle is over to shout now,

You know in the end, you're gonna win.

[repeat]

[Verse 1:]

When you're burdened down with the cares of life

and you're striving seems in vain. Hold you head up high, your deliverance is nigh,

when the battle is over'

[Chorus 2:]

When the battle is over, [x3]

we're going home.

[Verse 2:]

When the tears are streaming down

and there's no one around,

and you feel like all hope is gone. Don't dispair, God is right there, when the battle is over'

[Chorus 3:]

When the battle is over, [x3]

we're going home.

Solo ad lib (chorus follows "Hallelujah)

Ahh...One of these mornings, it won't be long, you're gonna look for me and I'll be goin' home. Going up to Glory, there to sing and shout, nobody there's gonna put me out. Gonna walk and talk with Jesus, gonna tell Him all about my troubles, gonna tell Him all about my trials; Hallelujah 3 1/2 x

[Bridge:]

Hallelujah [x5]

Solo: When the battle is over..(3x).

Choir (echoes): When the battle is over....

We're going home. Hallelujah.

(Overtime!) Solo says:listen, listen, listen...Why should I wait (3x)

Chorus: Halleluhah....(repeat)

Solo: Gonna thank Him for the rain, gonna thank Him for the pain, gonna thank Him for the trials He brought me through....HALLELUJAH! (3X)

Solo (extra): Gonna thank Him when I happy, gonna thank Him when I'm sad, gonna thank Him when I'm lonely, gonna thank Him when I'm mad. Hallelujah....
