O the joy and con­so­la­tion
Jesus of­fers thro’ sal­va­tion,
Since a ran­som for our sins He free­ly died,
That we might some day be giv­en
Our re­ward with an­gels in Hea­ven,
And in glad­ness ne­ver end­ing there abide!

Refrain

Yes, the Sav­ior of­fers joy and con­so­la­tion,
And a home with­in the glo­ri­ous man­sions for aye;
If you will no long­er wan­der,
But ac­cept His love and sal­va­tion,
He will free­ly, He will free­ly bless to­day.

O the joy and con­so­la­tion,
To be free from con­dem­na­tion,
Thro’ our Sav­ior, our blest Lord and friend so dear;
If you would now be pos­sess­ing
Jesus and His ev­ery bless­ing,
Only trust Him, on­ly trust Him: He is near.

Refrain

O ’tis free to ev­ery na­tion,
Without price or com­pen­sa­tion,
And He’s call­ing, oh! He calls you now to come;
Only take Him as your Sav­ior,
Sharing in His won­der­ful favor,
And for­ev­er, yes, for­ev­er, dwell at home.
