22 VICTORY IN JESUS (E)

---

I heard an old, old story , How a Saviourcame 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

Oh, 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 pow’r revealing, How He made the lame to walk again And cause 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

Oh, 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 a mansion He has built for me in glory, And I heard about the streets of gold Beyond the crystal seas; About the angels singing, And the old redemption story, And some sweet day I’ll sing up there The song of victory.

Chorus

Oh, 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
