Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #132 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Salvation, oh, the joyful sound!
'Tis music to our ears;
A sov'reign balm for every wound,
A cordial for our fears.
2 Buried in sorrow and in sin,
At hell's dark door we lay:
But we arise by grace divine,
To see a heavenly day.
3 Salvation! let the echo fly
The spacious earth around;
While all the armies of the sky
Conspire to raise the sound.
4 Salvation! O Thou bleeding Lamb,
To Thee the praise belongs:
Our hearts shall kindle at Thy name,
Thy name inspire our songs.
Amen. Topics: Christ Lamb of God; Christ Praise to; Forgiveness Of Sin; Grace Fulness of; Joy; Praise To Christ; Salvation By Grace; Salvation Joy at Languages: English Tune Title: CHESTERFIELD
