G                         G7
I heard An old, old story
      C                 G
How a saviour came from glory
       Em               G
How he gave his life on calvary
   A                 C
To save someone like me
  G                         G7
I heard about his groaning,
       C                 G
Of his precious blood's atoning
     Em         G     Em
Then i repented of my sin
    C       D    G
And won the victory
.
.Chorus
G            Em        C          G      D/F#
O victory in Jesus, My Savior, forever.
   Em      Ebaug G        G/Gb5
He sought me and bought me
     Am            D
With His redeeming blood;
   G              Em
He loved me ere I knew Him
    C              C#dim
And all my love is due Him,
   G/D           Em
He plunged me to victory,
  Am        D         G
Beneath the cleansing blood. 
.
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.
.
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.
