Praise the Lord!
This is the word of our testimony; we stand in the victory of Christ, we stand one with Christ, and we declare the divine facts, for Christ has overcome the devil, He destroyed the power of sin, and He took away both sin and sins! Hallelujah 😀

Not only does the blood of Christ in its power and preciousness redeem every repentant man and save them from their sins but it also in effect deals with the enemy binding him, and keeping him from any activity.
Hallelujah for the blood of Christ!

The composer of this tune is Lowell Mason, born in Medfield, Massachusetts, 1792. He has been called “The father of American choir singing. ” Retuning from Savannah, Georgia, where he spent 16 years of his younger life as a clerk in a bank, he relocated to Boston (1827), being already known there as the composer of “the Missionary Hymn. ” He had not neglected his musical studies while living in the South and it was in Savannah that he made the glorious harmony of this tune. He became president of the Handel and Haydn Society, went abroad for special study, was made Doctor of Music, and collected a store of themes among the great models of song to bring home for his future work.
The Boston Academy of Music was founded by him and what he did for the song-service of the Church in America by his singing schools, musical conventions, and published manuals to form and organize a choral branch of divine worship, has no parallel, unless it is Noah Webster’s service to the English language.
Dr. Mason died in Orange, New Jersey, in 1872

"Enemy! Listen up!
Christ is my sin offering. When He died on the cross, sin was judged and you were judged. You have been destroyed. If you come and harass me at any time, I will remind you of your utter defeat.
It is finished ! Amen Lord ! I believe in You and Your word!"
