"But thanks be to God, who gives us
the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ."  -1 Corinthians 15:57

• I heard an old, old story,
  How a Savior 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.

Refrain

• 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 bro't
  To me the victory

Refrain

• 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.

• Refrain:
  O 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.
