Through vivid storytelling and deeply spiritual imagery, the song portrays enemies rising under the cover of night, only to be undone by the God who never slumbers.

Lyrics
Victory Was Handed Verse 1: They arose in their numbers, gathered deep within the night, Whispering wicked counsel, plotting how to end our lives. They said, “Tonight, it’s settled we will strike them in their sleep, But the Lord who never slumbers kept His watch upon His sheep. We lay ourselves in silence, for the Lord had sealed our peace; They waited for our breathing, thinking we had fallen weak, But Heaven stood beside us, and our souls refused to break Victory was handed, victory was won Victorious! Glory to the Lord! Chorus: For the Lord wins every battle when we let Him take the lead; Mighty is His arm that fights for all who bow and humbly plead. Those who trust in wicked power fall upon their sharpened sword, But the children of the Most High rise triumphant through the Lord. Verse 2: They crept in softly with a rope held tightly in their hands, Certain that the night had bowed us to their dark ways and command. They reached to lift our heads up, thinking we were blind and still, But they trembled when they saw our open eyes defy their will. We rose with sudden power strength the Lord Himself had giv’n, Turned the snare upon the hunter, bound them fast by what they’d planned. They wept beneath the judgement they intended upon us, For the Lord reversed the story and declared our victory. *Chorus* Bridge: He turns the tables swiftly; He exposes every plot. He delivers those who trust Him, for His faithfulness is sure. When they say the story’s over, He proclaims a greater end For the battle is the Lord’s, and He defends His own again. *Chorus* Copyright 2025 Richard Shekari.
