1 News of redemption thro’ Christ our Lord,
Full and free, full and free;
Is offered today in the Saviour’s word,
And purchased in love for me.

Refrain:
News of redemption! O tell it afar;
Mercy is free, mercy is free;
Jesus has opened a fountain of blood,
A fountain for you and me.

2 Wonderful tidings! great joy they bring,
Full and free, full and free;
All glory to Jesus my heart shall sing,
For mercy and love to me. [Refrain]

3 Jesus the water of life bestows,
Full and free, full and free;
How pure from a river on high it flows;
The gift of His love to me. [Refrain]

4 Blessed redemption! its power believe,
Full and free, full and free;
A pardon thro’ Jesus by faith receive,
The purchase of love for me. [Refrain]
