Lyrics

There’s a song my heart is sing­ing,
In my soul its tones are ring­ing,
Peace and rest and joy ’tis bring­ing,
Jesus Christ has pow­er to save!

Refrain

Sing it ov­er and ov­er again to me,
In its won­der­ful sweet sim­pli­ci­ty;
Tell it o’er the ocean wave,
Jesus Christ has pow­er to save.

Oh, that song my soul is thrill­ing,
Jesus saves the soul that’s will­ing,
Precious truth my heart is fill­ing,
Jesus Christ has pow­er to save!

Refrain

Sinner, come if thou’lt re­ceive Him;
Look to Je­sus and be­lieve Him;
All your life and ser­vice give Him,
Jesus Christ has pow­er to save!
