78. Oh, For a Thousand Tongues

1 Oh, 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!

2 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.

3 Glory to God, and praise, and love
be ever, ever giv’n,
be ever, ever giv’n
by saints below and saints above,
the church in earth and heav’n,
the church in earth and heav’n,
the church in earth and heav’n.
