The voice of free grace, cries escape to the mountain:
For all that believe, Christ hath opened a fountain,
For sin and uncleanness, and every transgression,
His blood flows so freely in streams of salvation:
Hallelujah to the Lamb, who has bought us a pardon,
We’ll praise him again, when we pass over Jordan.
Ye souls that are wounded, to the Saviour repair,
Now he calls you in mercy— and can you forbear?
Tho’ your sins are increased as high as a mountain,
His blood can remove them; it streams from the fountain.
Hallelujah to the Lamb, who has bought us a pardon,
We’ll praise him again, when we pass over Jordan.
Now Jesus, our King, reigns triumphantly glorious
O'er sin, death, and hell, he is more than victorious,
With shouting proclaim it— O trust in his passion,
He saves us most freely— O precious salvation.
Hallelujah to the Lamb, who has bought us a pardon,
We’ll praise him again, when we pass over Jordan.
Our Jesus proclaims his name all victorious,
He reigns over all, and his kingdom is glorious:
To Jesus we’ll join with the great congregation,
And triumph, ascribing to him our salvation.
Hallelujah to the Lamb, who has bought us a pardon,
We’ll praise him again, when we pass over Jordan.
With joy shall we stand, when escaped to the shore,
With harps in our hands, we’ll praise him the more;
We’ll range the sweet plains on the bank of the river,
And sing of salvation for ever and ever!
Hallelujah to the Lamb, who has bought us a pardon,
We’ll praise him again, when we pass over Jordan.

The voice of free grace, cries escape to the mountain:
For Adam's lost race, Christ hath opened a fountain,
For sin and uncleanness, and every transgression,
His blood flows so freely in streams of salvation:
Hallelujah to the Lamb, who has bought us a pardon,
We’ll praise him again, when we pass over Jordan.
Ye souls that are wounded, Oh flee to the Saviour:
Now he calls you in mercy— 'tis infinite favour;
Your sins are increasing; escape to the mountain,
His blood can remove them; it streams from the fountain.
Hallelujah to the Lamb, who has bought us a pardon,
We’ll praise him again, when we pass over Jordan.
When Zion we see, having gained the blest shore,
With harps in our hands, we’ll praise him the more;
We’ll range the sweet plains on the bank of the river,
And sing of salvation for ever and ever!
Hallelujah to the Lamb, who has bought us a pardon,
We’ll praise him again, when we pass over Jordan.
