NOTE: Verse One word arrangement applies to all verses.

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

2. Bury'd in sorrow and in sin,
at hell's dark door we lay;
But we arise by grace divine
to see a heav'nly 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.
