O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing
O for a thou-sand tongues to sing
My great Re-deem-er's praise,
The glo-ries of my God and King,
The tri-umphs of His grace!
My gra-cious Mas-ter and my God,
As-sist me to pro-claim,
To spread through all the earth a-broad
The hon-ors of Thy name.
Je-sus! the name that charms our fears,
That bids our sor-rows cease,
'Tis mu-sic in the sin-ner's ears,
'Tis life and health and peace.
He breaks the power of can-celled sin,
He sets the pris-oner free;
His blood can make the foul-est clean,
His blood a-vailed for me.
Hear Him, ye deaf; His praise, ye dumb,
Your loos-ened tongues em-ploy;
Ye blind, be-hold your Sav-ior come;
And leap, ye lame, for joy!
