1. Salvation! O the joyful sound!
'Tis pleasure to our ears!
A sovereign balm for every wound,
A cordial for our fears.
2. Buried in sorrow and in sin,
At hell's dark door we lay,
But we arise by grace divine,
To see a heavenly day.
3. Salvation! let the echo fly
The spacious earth around,
While all the armies of the sky
Conspire to raise the sound.
