G
I heard an old, old story,
G7CG
How a Savior came from glory,
G
How He gave His life on Calvary
ADD7
To save a wretch like me;
G
I heard about His groaning,
G7CG
Of His precious blood's atoning,
G
Then I repented of my sins
ADGCGD7
And won the victory.
[Chorus]
G
O victory in Jesus,
G7CG
My Savior, forever.
G
He sought me and bought me
AD
With His redeeming blood;
G
He loved me ere I knew Him
G7CG
And all my love is due Him,
G
He plunged me to victory,
ADGCGD7
Beneath the cleansing flood.
[Verse 2]
G
I heard about His healing,
G7CG
Of His cleansing pow'r revealing.
G
How He made the lame to walk again
AD
And caused the blind to see;
G
And then I cried, "Dear Jesus,
G7CG
Come and heal my broken spirit,"
G
And somehow Jesus nd bro't
ADGCGD7
To me the victory.
[Chorus]
O victory in Jesus,
CG
My Savior, forever.
Em
He sought me and bought me
AD
With His redeeming blood;
G
He loved me ere I knew Him
G7CG
And all my love is due Him,
G
He plunged me to victory,
ADGCGD7
Beneath the cleansing flood.
[Verse 3]
G
I heard about a mansion
G7CG
He has built for me in glory.
G
And I heard about the streets of gold
AD
Beyond the crystal sea;
G
About the angels singing,
G7CG
And the old redemption story,
G
And some sweet day I'll sing up there
ADGCGD7
The song of victory.
[Chorus]
G
O victory in Jesus,
G7CG
My Savior, forever.
G
He sought me and bought me
AD
With His redeeming blood;
G
He loved me ere I knew Him
G7CG
And all my love is due Him,
G
He plunged me to victory,
ADGCGD7
Beneath the cleansing flood.
