1406

1.

I heard an old, old story, how a Saviour came from glory
How we gave His life on Calvary to save a wretch like me
I heard about His groaning, of His precious atoning
Then I repented of my sins and won Victory

2.

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 some how Jesus came and brought to me the victory

3.

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
O victory in Jesus, my Saviour, forever!
He sought me and brought 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
