Verse 1
I heard a story told of old,
How a King left His throne of gold,
To walk among the broken
And to heal the weary soul.
I heard about the price He paid,
The sacrifice that Love had made,
And as I turned to seek His face,
He made my spirit whole.
Chorus
Oh, there is victory in my Savior,
My Shepherd and my Friend.
He sought me and He bought me,
With a love that has no end.
He loved me 'ere I knew Him,
And now my heart is His;
He won the fight, brought me to light,
Through the grace that truly is.
Verse 2
I heard about His healing touch,
That He loves the least of us so much;
How He made the blind to see again
And caused the lame to stand.
And then I cried, "Lord, heal my heart,
And give my soul a brand new start,"
And then He came and took my sins
With His own nail-scarred hand.
Chorus
Oh, there is victory in my Savior,
My Shepherd and my Friend.
He sought me and He bought me,
With a love that has no end.
He loved me 'ere I knew Him,
And now my heart is His;
He won the fight, brought me to light,
Through the grace that truly is.
Verse 3
I heard about a home prepared,
For every soul whose life He shared,
Beyond the reach of shadows
Where the morning never dies.
And one day I will join the song,
With all the saints, a mighty throng,
To sing the praise of Him who won
Beyond the distant skies.
Chorus
Oh, there is victory in my Savior,
My Shepherd and my Friend.
He sought me and He bought me,
With a love that has no end.
He loved me 'ere I knew Him,
And now my heart is His;
He won the fight, brought me to light,
Through the grace that truly is.
