Jesus Saves

Words: Priscilla J. Owens

Music: William J. Kirkpatrick


(1) 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!”

(2)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!”

(3) Sing above the battle 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!”

(4) 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!”
