Representative Text

1 Go tell the world who are watching in sorrow,
Jesus hath broken the bars of the grave,
Point to the dawn of the brighter tomorrow,
Jesus is risen, the mighty to save.

Refrain:
Mighty to save,
Mighty to save,
Mighty to save,
Mighty to save;
Go tell the world that the day dawn is breaking,
Christ marches onward,
Mighty to save.

2 Tell the sad heathen-world, weary and weeping,
Sitting in darkness beyond ocean’s wave,
Centuries passing, they still watch are keeping,
Waiting for One who is mighty to save. [Refrain]

3 Comfort the weary ones, sad, broken-hearted,
Unloose the captive and lift up the slave,
Armies of rescue, from heav’ns portals started,
Follow the One who is mighty to save. [Refrain]

4 Jesus of Nazareth, wonderful story!
Strong to deliver from sin and the grave,
Majesty, honor, dominion and glory
Be unto Him who is mighty to save. [Refrain]
