How do you spell it?

Is it "Savior" or is it "Saviour"? Seemingly it is spelled both ways in Bible versions. As for the versions that are on my Bible program, here are the results:
SAVIOUR --- ASV, AV, BBE, Darby, Douay, JB2000, LO, NIV, Wey, Williams, YLT (11 translations)
SAVIOR ---AKJV, Diaglot, EMTV, ESV, HCSB, NAS95, NKJV, NRSV, RSV, Webster (10 translations)
So I guess it's a matter of taste as to how we spell the word. I, myself, prefer the one with the "u" --- "Saviour"
