O for a thousand tongues to sing
Charles Wesley, 1739. To be sung to Azmon.
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!
2
My gracious Master and my God, Assist me to proclaim, To spread through all the earth abroad The honors of thy name.
3
Jesus! the name that charms our fears, That bids our sorrows cease; ’Tis music in the sinner’s ears, ’Tis life, and health, and peace.
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.
