This is hymn #82 in the hymnal.

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.

1 Corinthians 15:57

All

KJV: But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Latin: Deo autem gratias qui dedit nobis victoriam per Dominum nostrum Iesum Christum

Wycliffe: But do we thankyngis to God, that yaf to vs victorie bi oure Lord Jhesu Crist.

He also wrote the country music song Take an Old Cold Tater (and Wait), recorded by Little Jimmy Dickens. Wikipedia.

Bartlett was inducted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame in Nashville, Tennessee in 1973. Wikipedia

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.

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.

Matthew 12:15

All

KJV: But when Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself from thence: and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them all;

Greek: ο δε ιησους γνους ανεχωρησεν εκειθεν και ηκολουθησαν αυτω οχλοι πολλοι και εθεραπευσεν αυτους παντας

Latin: Iesus autem sciens recessit inde et secuti sunt eum multi et curavit eos omnes

Wessex: Se haelend soðlice Note: MS. sodlice. þaet wiste & ferde þanon. & hym fylgde mycele maenigeo. & he helde hyo ealle.

Mark 8:24 And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking. [kjv]

και αναβλεψας ελεγεν βλεπω τους ανθρωπους οτι ως δενδρα ορω περιπατουντας [gnt]

How would someone blind from birth "see men as trees walking" on receiving sight from Jesus? In case studies, people blind from birth who received sight later in life can immediately "see" what they have experienced through other senses. If you have truly experienced Jesus you will see him as he is.

I heard about a mansion,

he has built for me in glory. And I heard about the streets of gold,

crystal sea

About the angels singing,

and the old redemption story, And some sweet day I'll sing up there

the song of 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.
