Representative Text

1 Many at the cross are kneeling,
Jesus, Jesus saves,
By his boundless love revealing,
Jesus, Jesus saves.

Refrain:
Hallelujah, light is beaming,
Hallelujah, blood is streaming,
Hallelujah, Jesus saves,
Hallelujah, Jesus saves.

2 All the lost and all the lonely,
Jesus, Jesus saves,
Oh, come now, believing only,
Jesus, Jesus saves. [Refrain]

3 Hearts are at this moment proving,
Jesus, Jesus saves,
Every sinful stain removing,
Jesus, Jesus saves. [Refrain]

4 Come with tears your sin confessing,
Jesus, Jesus saves,
Seek and find the choicest blessing,
Jesus, Jesus saves. [Refrain]

5 Hallelujah, saints are singing,
Jesus, Jesus saves,
Heaven with joyous song is ringing,
Jesus, Jesus saves. [Refrain]
