1 Shout the tidings of salvation,
To the aged and the young;
Till the precious invitation
Waken every heart and tongue.

Chorus:
Send the sound
The earth around,
From the rising to the setting of the sun;
Till each gathering crowd
Shall proclaim aloud,
The glorious work is done!

2 Shout the tidings of salvation
O'er the prairies of the west;
Till each gathering congregation,
With the gospel sound is blest. [Chorus]

3 Shout the tidings of salvation,
Mingling with the ocean's roar;
Till the ships of every nation,
Bear the news from shore to shore. [Chorus]
