Sing Your Way Through the Summer (Shane and Shane)

In these weeks of summer, we are returning to the theme of “Sing Your Way Through the Summer.” Today we reflect on the words to the popular song by Shane and Shane, “You’ve Already Won.” Take some time to listen to this song. (You can find it HERE.) Then, lift your voice in song: turn the lyrics into expressions of personal, specific prayer during your time with the Lord. You can also use this guide in your family time, small group, or even an upcoming church service.

 

“You’ve Already Won”

By Shane and Shane

 

Verse 1:

There’s peace that outlasts darkness

Hope that’s in the blood

There’s future grace that’s mine today

That Jesus Christ has won

So I can face tomorrow

For tomorrow’s in Your hands

All I need You will provide

Just like You always have

  • I praise You, Lord, that your peace is greater than the darkness of…
  • Jesus, because of the blood You shed for me, I can have real hope even when…
  • Thank You for the grace You will provide in the future, even if…
  • Because You have always been a faithful provider, I can trust You now to provide…

Chorus:

I’m fighting a battle

That you’ve already won

No matter what comes my way

I will overcome

I don’t know what You’re doing

But I know what You’ve done

I’m fighting a battle that

You’ve already won

  • Jesus, thank You that You are victorious over… And I can trust You with my battle with…
  • Lord, I surrender my current confusion and ignorance right now as I deal with…

Jesus, thank You that You are victorious over… And I can trust You with my battle with…

Verse 2:

There’s mercy in the waiting

Manna for today

And when it’s gone I know you’re not

You are my hope and stay

When the sea is raging

Your Spirit is my help

He’ll fix my eyes on Jesus Christ

And I’ll say that it is well

Oh, I know that it is well

  • Thank You, Jesus, that You are faithful and sufficient even when I lack…
  • Holy Spirit, give me Your help as I deal with the troubles of daily life, especially…
  • Lord, today I pray for (name) as their sea is raging. Help them trust You as their hope and stay.
  • Jesus, I say today, “It is well,” because my eyes are on You as I navigate…

Holy Spirit, give me Your help as I deal with the troubles of daily life, especially…

Bridge:

I know how the story ends

We will be with you again

You’re my Savior, my defense

No more fear in life or death

I know how this story ends

  • Savior, I am trusting You to defend (name) as they are dealing with…
  • Thank You that I do not have to surrender to my fears about…, because I will be with You in eternity.
