Hymnal: Laudes Domini #569 (1884) First Line: Salvation!--oh, the joyful sound! Lyrics: 1 Salvation!--oh, the joyful sound!
'Tis pleasure to our ears;
A sovereign balm for every wound,
A cordial for our fears.
Buried in sorrow and in sin,
At hell's dark door we lay;--
But we arise by grace divine,
To see a heavenly day.
3 Salvation!--let the echo fly
The spacious earth around;
While all the armies of the sky
Conspire to raise the sound.
4 Salvation! O thou bleeding Lamb!
To thee the praise belongs:
Salvation shall inspire our hearts,
And dwell upon our tongues. Languages: English Tune Title: ROGET
