7.3.7.3.7.7.7.3

1.

  We have heard the joyful sound:
Jesus saves!
Spread the tidings all around:
Jesus saves!
Bear the news to every land,
Climb the mountains, cross the waves;
Onward! ’tis our Lord’s command;
Jesus saves!

2.

Waft it on the rolling tide:
Jesus saves! 
Tell to sinners far and wide:
Jesus saves! 
Sing, you islands of the sea;
Echo back, you ocean caves;
Earth shall keep her jubilee:
Jesus saves! 

3.

Sing above the battle strife:
Jesus saves!
By His death and endless life
 Jesus saves!
Shout it brightly through the gloom,
 When the heart for mercy craves;
Sing in triumph o’er the tomb:
Jesus saves!

4.

Give the winds a mighty voice:
 Jesus saves!
Let the nations now rejoice:
Jesus saves! 
Shout salvation full and free;
Highest hills and deepest caves;
This our song of victory,
Jesus saves.
