O for a thousand tongues to sing
My great Redeemer's praise,
My great Redeemer's praise,
The glories of my God and King,
The triumphs of his grace
The triumphs of his grace
The triumphs of his grace!
Jesus! the name that charms our fears,
That bids our sorrows cease;
That bids our sorrows cease;
'Tis music in the sinner's ears,
'Tis life, and health, and peace
'Tis life, and health, and peace
'Tis life, and health, and peace.
He breaks the power of canceled sin,
He sets the prisoner free;
He sets the prisoner free;
His blood can make the foulest clean;
His blood availed for me
His blood availed for me
His blood availed for me.
He speaks, and listening to his voice,
New life the dead receive
New life the dead receive;
The mournful, broken hearts rejoice,
The humble poor believe
The humble poor believe
The humble poor believe.
Hear him, ye deaf; his praise, ye dumb,
Your loosened tongues employ
Your loosened tongues employ;
Ye blind, behold your savior come,
And leap, ye lame, for joy
And leap, ye lame, for joy
And leap, ye lame, for joy.
My gracious Master and my God,
Assist me to proclaim
Assist me to proclaim,
To spread through all the earth abroad
The honors of thy name
The honors of thy name
The honors of thy name.
