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