Salvation.

Salvation! oh, the joyful sound!

What pleasure to our ears;

A sovereign balm for every wound,

A cordial for our fears.

2 Salvation! let the echo fly

The spacious earth around,

While all the armies of the sky

Conspire to raise the sound.

3 Salvation! O thou bleeding Lamb!

To Thee the praise belongs:

Salvation shall inspire our hearts,

And dwell upon our tongues.

Isaac Watts.
