Crowning Glory No. 2 ‎#81

81. Salvation is Free for All

1 Oh, ye who are bound by the fetters of sin,
The Saviour has pow'r to set free!
He bled, and He died,
on the cross crucified,
To purchase salvation for thee!

Chorus:
Salvation is free for you and for me;
Oh, list to His gracious call!
Salvation is free for you and for me,
Salvation is free for all.

2 Oh, come to the Saviour so loving and kind,
He bids every sorrow to cease!
He bears ev'ry grief,
and He giveth relief:
Salvation is comfort and peace! [Chorus]

3 Oh, how I rejoice since this Jesus is mine,
And His I forever shall be!
His love I'll proclaim,
and I'll praise His dear name,
Still singing, "Salvation is free!" [Chorus]

4 Oh, brother, the Saviour is calling thee now;
From sin and its bondage be free;
There's pow'r in His name,
if the promise you'll claim:
Salvation is waiting for thee! [Chorus]
