Author: Priscilla J. Owens Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.7.6 Appears in 530 hymnals Topics: God's Church Mission and Witness Lyrics: 1 We have heard a joyful sound,
Jesus saves, Jesus saves;
spread the gladness 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 the jubilee,
Jesus saves, Jesus saves.
3 Sing above the battle strife,
Jesus saves, Jesus saves;
by his death and endless life,
Jesus saves, Jesus saves;
sing it softly through 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. Used With Tune: JESUS SAVES
We Have Heard A Joyful Sound
