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 wretch like me;

I heard about His groaning,

Of His precious blood's atoning,

Then I repented of my sins

And won the victory.

O victory in Jesus,

My Saviour, forever,

He sought me and bought me

With His redeeming blood;

He loved me ere I knew Him

And all my life 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.

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.
