It’s easy for me to tell you to have faith in Jesus for victory in trials or worries or whatever bothers you.
It seems the more I tell you, the more the good Lord tests my faith with small and even large things that concern me.
Actually, that’s a blessing because I learn to give it to Jesus, usually after a struggle.
Why am I so amazed when victory comes?
Another song says, “Through it all I learned to trust in Jesus” (Andrae Crouch).
1 Corinthians 15:57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Victory In Jesus
_____________________
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 to victory, — Beneath the cleansing flood.
I heard about His healing, — Of His cleansing pow'r 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 bro't to me the victory.
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.
