Representative Text

1 Jesus saves today,
Turn from sin away,
Gladly choose the better part;
There is joy for you,
When you’re born anew,
And He reigns within your heart.

Refrain
Jesus saves, repentant soul,
He will make you fully whole;
Jesus saves, today believe,
Pardon free, thro’ grace, receive.

2 Jesus saves indeed,
If in faith you plead,
Tho’ you’ve strayed afar from home;
You can see the light
Shining ’mid the night,
Hear Him calling you to come. [Refrain]

3 Jesus saves the lost,
Since He paid sin’s cost
With His blood on Calvary;
Can you e’er forget
Your uncanceled debt
To the One who made you free? [Refrain]
