Text:Glory to Jesus, He Saves
Author:P. B.
Tune:[Glory to Jesus, who died on the tree]
Composer:P. Bilhorn

19. Glory to Jesus, He Saves

1 Glory to Jesus who died on the tree,
Paid the great price that my soul might be free;
Now I can sing hallelujah to God,
Glory! He saves, He saves.

Chorus:
Glory! He saves, glory! He saves,
Saves a poor sinner like me;
Glory! He saves, glory! He saves,
Saves a poor sinner like me.

2 Once in my heart there was sin and despair,
Now the dear Saviour himself dwelleth there,
And from His presence comes peace to my soul,
Glory! He saves, He saves. [Chorus]

3 Come then, ye weary, who long to be free,
Come to the Saviour, He waiteth for thee,
Then with the ransom'd this song you can sing,
Glory! He saves, He saves. [Chorus]
