One life reclaimed from death and sin, Thro’ heav’n the tidings roll; Glad voices shout their jubilee O’er one more ransomed soul.

Chorus

“One soul redeemed! one soul redeemed!” O hear the angels sing; Rejoice! rejoice! ye heav’nly hosts, All glory to our King!

Were all the sweetest songs of earth In one rich flood outpoured, Yet grander far the angels’ song O’er one more soul restored.

Chorus

“One soul redeemed! one soul redeemed!” O hear the angels sing; Rejoice! rejoice! ye heav’nly hosts, All glory to our King!

It echoes thro’ the golden streets, It rings from tow’r and dome; That song the angels love to sing O’er wand’rers welcomed home.

Chorus

“One soul redeemed! one soul redeemed!” O hear the angels sing; Rejoice! rejoice! ye heav’nly hosts, All glory to our King!

Verse 4

Now thro’ the open city gates We hear the harps resound, And sweet and clear the chorus swells, “A soul once lost is found.”

Chorus

“One soul redeemed! one soul redeemed!” O hear the angels sing; Rejoice! rejoice! ye heav’nly hosts, All glory to our King!
