The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns ‎#CCXLIX

CCXLIX. Salvation, oh, the joyful Sound!

Salvation, oh, the joyful Sound!
'Tis Pleasure to our Ear!
A sov'reign Balm for ev'ry Wound,
A Cordial for our Fear.

Glory, Honour, Praise and Power,
Be unto the Lamb for ever;
Jesus Christ is our Redeemer.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Halleujah! Praise the Lord.

Bury'd in Sorrow, and in Sin,
At Hell's dark Door we lay;
But we arise by Grace Divine
To see an heav'nly Day.

Glory, Honour, Praise and Power,
Be unto the Lamb for ever;
Jesus Christ is our Redeemer.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Halleujah! Praise the Lord.

Salvation, let the Echo fly
The spacious Earth around;
While all the Armies of the Sky
Conspire to raise the Sound.

Glory, Honour, Praise and Power,
Be unto the Lamb for ever;
Jesus Christ is our Redeemer.
Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Halleujah! Praise the Lord.
