The War letra

I came and saw, and hoped to conquer
As the great Roman once had done
His was one hour's shock of battle
My field was harder to be won

I came and saw, but did not conquer
The foes were fierce, their weapons strong
I came, I saw, but did not conquer
For me the fight was sore and long

Chorus:
They said the war was brief and easy
One word, one look, would crush the throng
For some it may have been a moment's conflict
For me it has been sore and long

They said the threats were coward bluster
To brave men they could work no wrong
So some may boast of easy battle
To me it has been sore and long

Bridge:
And yet I know that I shall conquer
Though sore and hard the fight may be
I know, I know I shall be more than victor
Through Him who won the fight for me
