The Cyber Hymnal ‎#3301

3301. Jesus Sweetly Saves

1. Tell the sweet old story, shout the glad old song,
Let the ransomed swell it, as it rolls along,
Set the chorus ringing, jubilant and strong:
Jesus saves, sweetly saves.

Refrain
He saves, Jesus saves,
He saves, sweetly saves;
Let all nature join and sing,
To the glory of our king:
Jesus saves, sweetly saves.

2. Wanderers in darkness, going far astray,
Wait for you to beckon to the upward way.
Hasten with the message, tell it while you may:
Jesus saves, sweetly saves. [Refrain]

3. Sing His love and mercy, sound it evermore,
Till the world shall listen, wonder and adore,
Till the tuneful echoes reach the heav’nly shore:
Jesus saves, sweetly saves. [Refrain]
