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.
