299. Salvation! O the Joyful Sound

1 Salvation! O the joyful sound!
What pleasure to our ears!
A sovereign balm for ev’ry wound,
A cordial for our fears,
A cordial for our fears,
A cordial for our fears.

2 Salvation! let the echo fly
The spacious earth around,
While all the armies of the sky
Conspire to raise the sound.

3 Salvation! O Thou bleeding Lamb!
To Thee the praise belongs;
Salvation shall inspire our hearts,
And dwell upon our tongues.
