I heard an old, old story,
How a Savior came from glory,
How He gave His life on Calvary,
To save a wretch like me;
I heard about His groaning,
Of His precious blood's atoning,
Then I repented of my sins,
And won the victory.
(CHORUS)
O victory in Jesus,
My Savior, forever,
He sought me, and 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 power 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.
(CHORUS)
I heard about a mansion,
He has built for me in glory,
And I heard about the streets of gold,
Beyond the crystal sea;
About the angels singing,
And the old, redemption story,
And some sweet day I'll sing up there,
The song of victory.
(CHORUS)
