Verse 1
I heard and old old storyHow a savior came from gloryHow he gave his life on CalvaryTo save a wretch like meI heard about his groaningOf his precious blood atoningThen I repented of my sinsAnd won the victory
Music
Chorus
O victory in Jesus My savior foreverHe sought me and bought meWith his redeeming bloodHe love me ere I knew himAnd all my love is due himHe plunged me to victory Beneath the cleansing flood
Verse 2
I heard about His healing,Of His cleansing power revealing.How He made the lame to walk againAnd caused the blind to see;And then I cried, "Dear Jesus,Come and heal my broken spirit,"And somehow Jesus came and brothYou to the victory.
Chorus
O victory in Jesus My savior foreverHe sought me and bought meWith his redeeming bloodHe love me ere I knew himAnd all my love is due himHe plunged me to victory Beneath the cleansing flood
Verse 3I heard about a mansionHe has built for me in gloryAnd I heard about the streets of goldBeyond the crystal seaAbout the angels singing And the old redemption storyAnd some sweet day I sing up thereThe song of victory
Chorus
O victory in Jesus My savior foreverHe sought me and bought meWith his redeeming bloodHe love me ere I knew himAnd all my love is due himHe plunged me to victory Beneath the cleansing flood
