I heard an old, old story, how a Savior came from glory (how He gave His life) How He gave His life on Calvary to save a wretch like me I heard about His groaning, (of His blood's atoning) of His precious blood's atoning Then I repented (repented) of my sins (repented of my sins) and won the victory
Chorus: Oh victory in Jesus (victory in Jesus), my Savior (my Savior) forever (forever) He sought me and He bought me with His redeeming blood (bought me with His 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" I then obeyed His blest command and gained the victory
Repeat Chorus
The flood...
I heard about a mansion He has built for me in glory And I heard about the street of gold beyond the crystal sea (beyond the crystal sea) About the angels singing (the angels are singing) and the old redemption story Oh and some sweet day I'll sing up there the song of victory
Repeat Chorus (x2)
He plunged me to victory beneath the cleansing flood He plunged me to victory beneath the cleansing flood
I've got a victory in Jesus You've got a victory in Jesus
