Representative Text

1 Proclaim the glad tidings o'er mountain and plain,
Repeat the sweet story again and again,
Our Jesus is mighty to save.

Chorus:
Mighty to save, and mighty to bless,
Mighty to comfort the heart in distress;
Press into his presence, ye weary ones, press,
Our Jesus is mighty to save.

2 His saving hand reaches our uttermost woe,
He loves and he makes us far whiter than snow;
Our Jesus is might to save. [Chorus]

3 Come, venture right boldly and lay aside doubt,
No soul that came to him was ever cast out;
Our Jesus is might to save. [Chorus]

4 This is the old Gospel today, still the same,
God's pow'r to save sinners who trust in his name;
Our Jesus is mighty to save. [Chorus]
