[Verse]
D
I heard an old, old story,
G D
How a Savior came from glory,
A D
How He gave His life on Calvary
E A
To save a wretch like me;
D
I heard about His groaning,
G D
Of His precious blood's atoning,
A D
Then I repented of my sins
Em A7 D
And won the victory.
[Chorus]
D
O victory in Jesus,
G D
My Savior, forever.
A D
He sought me and bought me
E A
With His redeeming blood;
D
He loved me ere I knew Him
G D
And all my love is due Him,
D D
He plunged me to victory,
Am7 A7 D
Beneath the cleansing flood.
[Verse 2]
D
I heard about His healing,
G
Of His cleansing pow'r revealing.
A
How He made the lame to walk again
E A
And caused the blind to see;
D
And then I cried, "Dear Jesus,
G D
Come and heal my broken spirit,"
A D
And somehow Jesus came and bro't
E A7 D
To me the victory.
[Chorus]
D
O victory in Jesus,
G D
My Savior, forever.
A D
He sought me and bought me
E A
With His redeeming blood;
D
He loved me ere I knew Him
G D
And all my love is due Him,
D D
He plunged me to victory,
Am7 A7 D
Beneath the cleansing flood.
[Verse 3]
D
I heard about a mansion
G
He has built for me in glory.
A D
And I heard about the streets of gold
E A
Beyond the crystal sea;
D
About the angels singing,
G
And the old redemption story,
A D
And some sweet day I'll sing up there
E A7 D
The song of victory.
[Chorus]
D
O victory in Jesus,
G D
My Savior, forever.
A D
He sought me and bought me
E A
With His redeeming blood;
D
He loved me ere I knew Him
G D
And all my love is due Him,
D D
He plunged me to victory,
Am7 A7 D
Beneath the cleansing flood.
