O precious Savior, how we do love Thee, Thou hast washed away our load of guilt and sin; Born of the Spirit, fully saved and free, Our joyful hearts shall never cease to sing.
Refrain: Oh, hallelujah to the Lamb! Ye happy saints to Jesus sing; Tell every nation Jesus saves, And glorify the name of Heaven’s King.
Sorrow’s departed, joy we’re receiving, For the Lord has swept the shades of night away; How wonderful this holy joy and peace; Oh, it is glory, everlasting day!
Joyful in glory, oh, hallelujah! We will sing to Jesus everlasting praise; Shout, shout the vict’ry—Christ hath made us free, And keeps us holy all our pilgrim days.
Let joyful music cheer all our journey, Make the gloomy desert blossom as the rose; Sing of redemption, shout the jubilee, And drive away the gloom of mortal woes.
O ye redeemed ones, sound out the tidings That the blessed Jesus died to save us all; To every sinner tell the wondrous news, Sing of salvation, sing the gospel call.
