Artist: Merle Haggard Album: Two Old Friends (wAlbert E. Brumley) (2001) Title: Victory in Jesus
Lyrics Victory in Jesus(Burl Ives)
I heard an old, old story how a Savior came from glory How He gave His life on Calvary to save a wretch like me I heard about His groaning of His precious blood's atoning Then I repented of my sins and won the victory.
Chorus: O victory in Jesus, my Savior, forever He sought me and bought me with His redeeming blood He loved me ere I knew Him and all my love is due Him He plunged me into victory, beneath the cleansing blood.
--- Instrumental ---
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.
Chorus: O victory in Jesus, my Savior, forever He sought me and bought me 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 blood... |
