VICTORY IN JESUS
I
heard an old, old story, how the 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, for ever!
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.
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.
