VICTORY IN JESUS
I HEARD AN OLD, OLD STORY
HOW A SAVIOUR CAME FROM GLORY
HOW HE GAVE HIS LIFE ON CALVARY
TO SAVE A RECH LIKE ME
I HEARD ABOUT HIS GROANING,
OF HIS PRECIOUS BLOOD'S ATONING
THEN I REPENTED OF MY SIN
AND WON THE VICTORY
OH, VICTORY IN JESUS, MY SAVIOUR FOREVER
HE SOUGHT ME AND HE BOUGHT ME
WITH HIS REDEEMING BLOOD
HE LOVED ME ERE I KNEW HIM
AND ALL MY LOVE IS DUE HIM
HE PLUNGED ME TO VICTORY
BENEATH THE CLEANSING FLOOD
I HEARD ABOUT HIS HEALING,
OF HIS CLEANSING POW'R REVEALING
HOW HE MADE THE LAME TO WALK AGAIN
AND CAUSED THE BLIND TO SEE
AND THEN I CRIED "DEAR JESUS,
COME AND HEAL MY BROKEN SPIRIT"
AND SOMEHOW JESUS CAME AND BROUGHT
TO ME THE VICTORY
OH, VICTORY IN JESUS, MY SAVIOUR FOREVER
HE SOUGHT ME AND HE BOUGHT ME
WITH HIS REDEEMING BLOOD
HE LOVED ME ERE I KNEW HIM
AND ALL MY LOVE IS DUE HIM
HE PLUNGED ME TO VICTORY
BENEATH THE CLEANSING FLOOD
I HEARD ABOUT A MANSION,
HE HAD BUILT FOR ME IN GLORY
AND I HEARD ABOUT THE STREETS OF GOLD
BEYOND THE CRYSTLE SEA
ABOUT THE ANGELS SINGING,
AND THE OLD REDEMTION STORY
AND SOME SWEET DAY I'LL SING UP THERE
THE SONG OF VICTORY
OH, VICTORY IN JESUS, MY SAVIOUR FOREVER
HE SOUGHT ME AND HE BOUGHT ME
WITH HIS REDEEMING BLOOD
HE LOVED ME ERE I KNEW HIM
AND ALL MY LOVE IS DUE HIM
HE PLUNGED ME TO VICTORY
BENEATH THE CLEANSING FLOOD
