VICTORY IN JESUS

Words: Eugene M. Bartlett

Tune: Hartford, Eugene M. Bartlett

G G/B C G
1 I heard an old, old story, How a Savior came from glory,
2 I heard about His healing, Of His cleansing power re-vealing,
3 I heard about a mansion He has built for me in glory,

(G) Em D G Em G7 A
A9 D
1 How He gave His life on Calva - ry To save a wretch
like me;
2 How He made the lame to walk a-gain And caused the blind
to see;
3 And I heard about the streets of gold Be -yond the
crys-tal sea;

G G/B C G
1 I heard about His groaning Of His precious blood's a-
toning,
2 And then I cried "Dear Jesus, Come and heal my broken
spirit,"
3 About the angels singing And the old redemption
story,

(G) Em D G B7 Em G7/B C6 Dsus D

G
1 Then I repent - ed of my sins and won the vic
-to-ry.
2 And somehow Je - sus came and brought to me the vic
-to-ry.
3 And some sweet day I'll sing up there the song of vic
-to-ry.

Refrain:
(G) G7 C G
O victory in Jesus my Savior, for-ever!
(G) Em D G A A9 D
He sought me and bought me with His redeem-ing blood;
Dsus G G7 C G
He loved me ere I knew Him, and all my love is due Him
(G) C Dsus D G
He plunged me to victory beneath the cleans-ing flood.
