I heard an old, old story,
How a Saviour 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.
My Saviour, 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 His healing,
Of His cleansing power 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 brought to me the victory.
My Saviour, 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.
My Saviour, 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.
