Overcome Lyrics

OVERCOME
The foolishness of the cross?
Salvation for the lost?
Are we decieving ourselves for our cause?
I still believe in a GOD i can't see.
What foolish things do i cling to?
I stand accused, i'm a fool this cross i cling to (x2)
Will not be removed.
I cling to YOU
I am rooted in the truth.
In the truth
You, ancient of days.
I steep my heart in your almighty ways.
Spit in the face of the
Saviour
Spit in the face of the
Save Your
Spit in the face of the
Saviour
Spit in the face of the
Save Your Breath
Save you mockery
Saviour. Saviour
Save me. Save me from myself.
Overcome
I am not ashamed. To live is Christ, to die is surely gain.
Overcome
this worthless sense of grief
Stare death in the face. I am not afraid
Overcome
We will stare death in the face(x2)
OVERCOME

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Time and time again we fail to live Christ. As Christians we know the absolute truth and when our actions divert from Christ its an intentional "spit in the face of the savior." We rely on our own understandings and strength therefore becoming our worst enemies later begging Jesus to "save me from myself." With the power of Christ in our lives we have the ability to OVERCOME and stare death (evil, the world) in the face without fear.

The song is pretty straightforward but still my interpretation. All things are possible through Jesus Christ.
