17. Salvation, O the Joyful Sound!

1 SALVATION! O the joyful sound!
What music to our ears!
A sov’reign balm for every wound,
A cordial for our fears.

Refrain:
Glory, honour, praise, and power,
Be unto the Lamb for ever!
Jesus Christ is our Redeemer:
Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Hallelujah! Praise the Lord.

2 Salvation! O Thou bleeding Lamb,
To Thee the praise belongs;
Salvation shall inspire our hearts,
And dwell upon our tongues.

3 Salvation! Let the echo fly
The spacious earth around;
While all the armies of the sky
Conspire to raise the sound.
