G C G
I Heard An Old, Old Story, How A Savior Came From Glory
Em G A D
How He Gave His Life On Calvary, To Save A Wretch Like Me
G C G
I Heard About His Groaning Of His Precious Bloods Atoning,
Em G A D G
Then I Repented Of My Sins And Won The Victory.
Chorus:
G C G
Oh Victory In Jesus, My Savior Forever!
Em G A D
He Sought Me And Bought Me, With His Redeeming Blood
G C G
He Loved Me Ere I Knew Him, And All My Love Is Due Him
Em G A D G
He Plunged Me To Victory, Beneath The Cleansing Flood.
Verse 2:
G C G
I Heard About His Healing, Of His Cleansing Power Revealing,
Em G A D
How He Made The Lame To Walk Again, And Caused The Blind To See
G C G
And Then I Cried Dear Jesus, Come And Heal My Broken Spirit,
Em G A D G
And Somehow Jesus Came And Brought To Me The Victory
Verse 3:
G C G
I Heard About A Mansion He Has Built For Me In Glory,
Em G A D
And I Heard About The Streets Of Gold, Beyond The Crystal Sea
G C G
About The Angels Singing And The Old Redemption Story,
Em G A D G
And Some Sweet Day Ill Sing Up There The Song Of Victory
