Living Hymns ‎#13

13. He's Mighty to Save

1 Jesus is waiting his grace to bestow,
Sin “red like crimson” He makes white as snow;
Loving us freely, his lifeblood he gave;
Blessed Redeemer! he’s mighty to save.

Chorus:
Mighty to save, mighty to save,
Jesus is mighty to save;
Mighty to save, mighty to save,
Jesus is mighty to save.

2 Standing alone in the strife we shall fail,
Close to our Leader his might will prevail;
Or if a blessing for others we crave,
Pray on, believing,--he's mighty to save. [Chorus]

3 Take him the burden that weighs on your heart,
Take him the trouble, he’ll comfort impart;
Held by his hand we can walk on the wave;
Look up to Jesus! he's mighty to save.
[Chorus]

4 Up from the valley the darkness is gone
When Jesus brings there the beauty of dawn;
Vict’ry, glad vict’ry, we sing o’er the grave;
Glory to Jesus! he’s mighty to save. [Chorus]
