His be "the Victor’s name,"
Who fought the fight alone;
Triumphant saints no honor claim,
His conquest was their own.

By weakness and defeat,
He won the meed and crown;
Trod all our foes beneath His feet
By being trodden down.

Bless, bless the Conqueror slain,
Slain in His victory;
Who lived, who died, who lives again–
For thee, His church, for thee!
