- We have heard a joyful sound: Jesus saves! Jesus saves!
Tell the message 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!
Say 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 toil and strife: Jesus saves! Jesus saves!
By his death and endless life Jesus saves! Jesus saves!
Sing it softly through 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! Amen.
