Author: Rev. Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Hymnal #199 (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: The Hymnal Lyrics: 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 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.
3 He breaks the power of reigning sin,
He sets the prisoner free;
His blood can make the sinful clean,
His blood availed for me.
4 My gracious Master and my God,
Assist me to proclaim,
To spread through all the earth abroad,
The honors of Thy Name.
5 Glory to God and praise and love
Be ever, ever given
By saints below and saints above,
The Church in earth and heaven.
Amen. Topics: Jesus Christ the Lord Praise to Christ the Lord; Christ Exaltation of; Christ Praise to Christ; Jesus, The Name of; Praise Tune Title: RICHMOND
