Author: C. E. R. Hymnal: The Best of All #154 (1910) Hymnal Title: The Best of All First Line: Victory in Jesus, Vict'ry in his name Lyrics: 1 Victory in Jesus,
Vict’ry in his name;
Christ, the world’s Redeemer,
All-atoning Lamb,
Came to earth from glory,
Triumphed o’er the grave;
Shout the joyful story,
“Jesus came to save!”
2 Saves from condemnation,
Saves from guilt and fear,
Saves from cruel bondage,
Wipes the falling tear;
Peace! to tossing billows,
Calms the troubled wave;
Shout the joyful story,
“Jesus came to save!”
3 Trust him for His mercy,
Pardon full and free,
Uttermost salvation,
Blissful purity,
For the word’s redemption
Christ his life he gave;
Shout the joyful story,
“Jesus came to save!” Tune Title: [Victory in Jesus, Vict'ry in his name]
Jesus Came to Save
