We have heard the joyful sound:
  Jesus saves! Jesus saves!
Spread the tidings all around:
  Jesus saves! Jesus saves!
Bear the news to every 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 her jubilee,
  Jesus saves, Jesus saves.
3
Sing above the battle's strife,
  Jesus saves, Jesus saves;
By His death and endless life,
  Jesus saves, Jesus saves;
Sing it softly thru 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.

As I observed my devotion from the gospel of Luke 24: 45- 48. The hymn just dropped into my heart. Assuring and instructive.

I was singing this song in my dream today been Easter Sunday 2023..... I love this hymn right from my childhood in my local church back then in Presbyterian Church of Nigeria. How I wish present day Pentecostal churches can be singing hymns once again, salvation will come down heavenly nighty.

Stanzas 3 and 4 are different and stanza 5 is added:

3. Cried the cross on Calv'ry's hill:

Jesus saves! Jesus saves!

Precious blood is speaking still:

Jesus saves! Jesus saves!

Jesus died, our judgment bore;

Rising, life to us He gave;

To the heav'ns with Him we soar.

Jesus saves! Jesus saves!

4. 'Tis the gospel word in truth:

Jesus saves! Jesus saves!

This, man's troubled heart can soothe:

Jesus saves! Jesus saves!

Weary ones find rest and peace;

Sorrowful, rejoice always;

Sinners, wait no longer, please;

Jesus saves! Jesus saves!

5. Still proclaim this gospel word:

Jesus saves! Jesus saves!

Speak till all on earth have heard:

Jesus saves! Jesus saves!

Grace of God to all is giv'n,

E'en to those whose sins are grave.

Still I'll tell, though voice grows thin:

Jesus saves! Jesus saves!
