We have heard the joyful sound

1
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.

This is one of the hymns that reminds me that I've not done enough to appreciate the love of Christ for me. And I can't stop crying for my sinful nature and asking God for forgiveness. Oh indeed Jesus saves. Thank You Jesus for Salvation.

I was immersed in Psalm 89, came to verse 15, ”how blessed are the people who know the joyful sound! ” That phrase immediately took me to one of my childhood hymns, “We have heard the joyful sound, Jesus Saves, Jesus Saves! ” Then I saw all these brothers and sisters in Jesus all over the globe singing of how He saved them, and I joined them! Thank you Lord Jesus for saving me, and taking me to a hymn I hadn’t sung in 50 plus years.
