Salvation for all the Savior has died

Representative Text

1 Salvation for all, the Savior has died,
The gates of salvation stand open and wide;
The heralds of mercy to sinners proclaim,
Believe ye in Christ, and be saved thro' His name.

Chorus:
Rejoice, and be glad, for the "saying" is true,
The Savior has suffered for me and for you;
None are rejected, for "Christ Jesus came"
To save every soul who believes on His name.

2 Salvation for all, His blood can atone,
For all the transgressions the vilest have done;
The Lover of sinners bids all men to know,
"Tho' their sins be as scarlet,
He'll make them as snow." [Chorus]

3 Salvation for all, "Today hear His voice,"
For Christ and redemption delay not your choice;
The soul can not perish that trusts in His word,
He casts none away who confess Him as Lord. [Chorus]

4 Salvation for all--salvation is free,
The Savior of sinners is calling for thee;
Today heed His call--His precepts obey,
Believe and receive Him,
He'll save you today. [Chorus]
