1 Jesus now is my salvation,
He has saved me from all sin;
Thro’ His blood I have redemption,
And I reset complete in Him.
O the joy of full salvation!
How it thrills my inmost soul!
Spread the news to ev’ry nation:
Jesus blood has made me whole.

Chorus:
Why don’t you come to Jesus?
Why don’t you come to Jesus?
Why don’t you come to Jesus and be saved?

2 By His royal proclamation
Sin’s dominion now is o’er,
And in conscious full salvation
I may sing forever more.
O the joy of full salvation!
How it thrills my inmost soul!
Spread the news to ev’ry nation:
Jesus blood has made me whole. [Chorus]

3 O the love of my Redeemer!
O the wonders of His grace!
I will praise His name forever,
And rejoice before His face.
O the joy of full salvation!
How it thrills my inmost soul!
Spread the news to ev’ry nation:
Jesus blood has made me whole. [Chorus]
