He has felt your grief be - fore, Num-bered all your sorrows o'er,
He will speak un- to your soul, Make your ev - 'ry heart-ache whole,
Oh, the mercy He will show, Oh, the grace He will be - stow,
Tell Him all- He is your Friend, He will count-less bless-ings send,

He drew me with the cords of love, And thus He bound me to Him.
And not a-lone the gift of life, But His own self He gave me.
To guard me on my on-ward course, And bring me safe to heav - en.
So wise a Counsellor and Guide, So might - y
a De-fend - er!

And 'round my heart still close - ly twine Those ties which naught can sev - er,
Nought that I have my own I call, I hold it for the Giv - er:
Th' e - ter - nal glo- ries gleam a-far, To nerve my faint en - deav - or:
From Him, who loves me now so well, What pow'r my soul can sev - er?

For I am His, and He is mine, Forever and for-ev-er.
My heart, my strength, my life, my all, Are His, and His
So now to watch, to work, to war, And then
Shall life or death, or earth or hell? No; I

for-ev - er. for-ev-er. for-ev - er.

He is my strength from day to day, With-out Him I would fall.
I go to Him for bless-ings, and He gives them o'er and o'er.
Oh, how could I this Friend de - ny, When He's so true to me?
I trust Him now, I'll trust Him when Life's fleet-ing days shall end.

Spread the tidings all
around: Jesus saves! Jesus saves!
Tell
to sin - ners far and wide: Jesus saves! Je - sus saves!
His death and end-less life, Jesus saves! Jesus saves!

By

Let the

na - tions now re- joice, -Je - sus saves! Je - sus saves!

Bear the news to ev'ry land, Climb the steeps and cross the waves;
Sing, ye islands of the sea; Ech - o back, ye ocean caves;
Sing it soft - ly thro' the gloom, When the heart for mer - cy craves;
Shout sal va - tion full and free, Highest hills and deep - est caves;

saves! Je sus saves!

saves! Je - sus saves!

Onward!-'tis our Lord's com-mand; Je sus
Earth shall keep her ju - bilee: Je - sus
Sing in triumph o'er the tomb,-Je - sus
This our song of vic to
ry,- Je sus saves! Je

saves! Je - sus saves!

sus saves!
