Lyrics

Jesus saves! O blessèd story
Full of love and peace divine,
Bursting from the realms of glory,
Echoing through this world of time.

Refrain

Jesus saves! O glory! glory!
Shout the tidings o’er and o’er;
Tell to all the earth the story,
Jesus saves forevermore.

Jesus saves! O, who can fathom
All the fullness of His love?
He once died for our redemption,
Now He waits for us above.

Refrain

Jesus saves! O sinner, hearken
To the call of love today;
There’s no other way to Heaven,
Jesus is the only way.
