That bids our sorrows cease;

'Tis music in the sinner's ears,

'Tis life, and health, and peace.

4 He breaks the power of canceled sin,

He sets the pris'ner free:

His blood can make the foulest clean--

His blood availed for me.

5 He speaks--and, list'ning to his voice

New life the dead receive;

The mournful, broken hearts rejoice,
