Though your sins are increased as high as a mountain, His blood can remove them-it flows from the fountain. 3 Now Jesus, our King, reigns triumphantly glorious; O'er sin, death, and hell, he is more than victorious. 5 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.
