THE VICTORY

"Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place."

2 Corinthians 2:14
Kiing James Version

Alice Jean Cleator wrote a beautiful hymn "THE TRIUMPH SONG". I love the words in this hymn.

"There’s a gleam of light in the skies of morn, There’s a great stone rolled from the grave away; To the waiting world there’s a hope new born Of a joy to last for aye!

Ten thousand voices sound the word Through gleaming courts on high; The mighty One, the risen Lord, Hath gained the victory."

Bill and Gloria Gaither sing one of my favorite hymns "Victory In Jesus". I'm so glad Jesus won the victory over death and satan.

"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.

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."

Thank You, Jesus, for what You did for us on the cross when You shed Your blood and died for our sins. There is no way we can ever repay You for Your unconditional love for us. I love You so much and look foward to the happy joyous day when I will have the privilege of seeing You face to face.
