We have heard the joyful sound

We have heard the joyful sound:

Jesus saves! Jesus saves!

Spread the tidings all around:

Jesus saves! Jesus saves!

Bear the news to every land

Climb the steeps and cross the waves;

Onward!—’tis our Lord’s command;

Jesus saves! Jesus saves!

Waft it on the rolling tide

Jesus saves

Jesus saves;

Tell to sinners far and wide

Jesus saves

Jesus saves;

Sing

ye islands of the sea

Echo back

ye ocean caves;

Earth shall keep her jubilee

Jesus saves

Jesus saves.

Sing above the battle’s strife

Jesus saves

Jesus saves;

By His death and endless life

Jesus saves

Jesus saves;

Sing it softly thru the gloom

When the heart for mercy craves

Sing in triumph o’er the tomb

Jesus saves

Jesus saves.

Give the winds a mighty voice

Jesus saves

Jesus saves;

Let the nations now rejoice.

Jesus saves

Jesus saves;

Shout salvation full and free

Highest hills and deepest caves

This our song of victory

Jesus saves

Jesus saves.
