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.
