When The Battle Is Over

Walter Hawkins

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 your striving seems in vain.
Hold your head up high, your deliverence is nigh';
when the battle is over'

Chorus 2
When the battle is over (3x),
we're going home.

Verse 2
When the tears are streaming down
and there's no one around,
when you feel all hope is gone.
Don't despair, God will be right there;
when the battle is over'

Bridge
Hallelujah (5x)
