Verse 1:
O for a thousand tongues to sing
My great Redeemer’s praise,
The glories of my God and King,
The triumphs of His grace!
Verse 2:
My gracious Master and my God,
Assist me to proclaim,
To spread thro’ all the earth abroad
The honours of Thy name.
Verse 3:
Jesus! the name that charms our fears,
That bids our sorrows cease,
‘Tis music in the sinners’ ears,
‘Tis life, and health, and peace.
Verse 4:
He breaks the power of cancelled sin,
He sets the prisoner free;
His blood can make the foulest clean;
His blood availed for me.
Verse 5:
He speaks, and listening to His voice,
New life the dead receive;
The mournful, broken hearts rejoice;
The humble poor, believe.
Verse 6:
Hear Him, ye deaf;
His praise, ye dumb,
Your loosened tongues employ;
Ye blind, behold your Saviour come;
And leap, ye lame, for joy.
