1.	We have heard the joyful sound: 
		Jesus saves! Jesus saves! 
	Spread the tidings all around: 
		Jesus saves! Jesus saves! 
	Bear the news to ev'ry 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! 
	Tell to sinners far and wide: 
		Jesus saves! Jesus saves! 
	Sing it softly thro' 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!
