Salvation. Ps. 35. 9; Isa. 52. 10; Jonah 2. 9

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

2 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.
