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 flood. 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!
