As I woke this morning, I started thinking, I've heard "Jesus Saves" recently. However, I can not remember when. Perhaps during a recent church service or on the radio or someplace but you know my memory is a little weak. But I recall, enjoying hearing and singing along with this great old hymn,
Priscilla Owens worked 50 years in the public school system. She also was very active as a Sunday School Teacher. In 1892, she wrote "Jesus Saves" for a Sunday School Mission Anniversary. Enjoy the words this morning and I pray you will be blessed!
"We have heard the joyful sound: Jesus saves! Jesus saves! Spread the tidings all around: Jesus saves! Jesus saves! Bear the news to every land, Climb the mountains, cross the waves; Onward! ’tis our Lord’s command; Jesus saves! Jesus saves!
Waft it on the rolling tide: Jesus saves! Jesus saves! Tell to sinners far and wide: Jesus saves! Jesus saves! Sing, you islands of the sea; Echo back, you ocean caves; Earth shall keep her jubilee: Jesus saves! Jesus saves!
Sing above the battle strife: Jesus saves! Jesus saves! By His death and endless life Jesus saves! Jesus saves! Shout it brightly through the gloom, When the heart for mercy craves; Sing in triumph o’er the tomb: Jesus saves! Jesus saves!
Give the winds a mighty voice: Jesus saves! Jesus saves! Let the nations now rejoice: Jesus saves! Jesus saves! Shout salvation full and free; Highest hills and deepest caves; This our song of victory: Jesus saves! Jesus saves!"
This is our song of victory! Share the tidings all around! Bear the news to every land! Jesus Saves!
I pray you will have a blessed Friday!
