Saviour's Voice.
1Hear what a Saviour's voice,
To sinners, does proclaim;
O, all ye ransomed souls, rejoice
In your Redeemer's name.
2Where sin and death have reigned,
And all their power employed,
There are his love and light maintained,
And heavenly truth enjoyed.
3The needy, starving poor
Are filled with living bread;
The opening of the prison door
Proclaims the captive freed.
4The thirsty, panting soul,
That longs for springs of grace,
Beholds celestial waters roll,
And floods of righteousness.
5My God, my Saviour too,
I would thy love proclaim,
Partake of what is brought to view,
And sing thy glorious name.
