How a Savior came from glory,

How He gave His life on Calvary

Then I repented of my sin

And won the victory.

Beneath the cleansing flood.

Come and heal my broken spirit,"

To me the victory.

He has built for me in glory.

And the old redemption story,

And some sweet day I'll sing up there

The song of victory.
