Oh, for a Thousand Tongues to Sing
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,730 hymnals Scripture: Luke 4:18-19 Lyrics: 1 Oh, 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 your name.
3 The name of Jesus charms our fears
and bids our sorrows cease;
'tis music in the sinner's ears,
'tis life and health and peace.
4 He breaks the power of canceled sin,
he sets the prisoner free;
his blood can make the foulest clean;
his blood avails for me.
5 He speaks, and, listening to his voice,
new life the dead receive;
the mournful, broken hearts rejoice;
the humble poor believe.
6 Hear him, you deaf; you voiceless ones,
your loosened tongues employ;
you blind, behold your Savior come;
and leap, you lame, for joy!
7 To God all glory, praise, and love
be now and ever given
by saints below and saints above,
the church in earth and heaven.

Oh, for a Thousand Tongues to Sing
Luke 4:18,19: Hark, the glad sound, the Saviour comes!
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 819 hymnals Scripture: Luke 4:18-19 First Line: Hark, the glad sound, the Saviour comes! Lyrics:
Hark, the glad sound, the Saviour comes!
the Saviour promised long;
Let ev’ry heart exult with joy,
and ev’ry voice be song!
On him the Spirit, largely shed,
exerts its sacred fire;
Wisdom and might, and zeal and love,
his holy breast inspire.
He comes! the pris’ners to relieve,
in Satan’s bondage held;
The gates of brass before him burst,
the iron fetters yield.
He comes! from dark’ning scales of vice
to clear the inward sight;
And on the eye-balls of the blind
to pour celestial light.
139
He comes! the broken hearts to bind,
the bleeding souls to cure;
And with the treasures of his grace
t’ enrich the humble poor.
The sacred year has now revolved,
accepted of the Lord,
When Heav’n’s high promise is fulfilled,
and Isr’el is restored.
Our glad hosannahs, Prince of Peace!
thy welcome shall proclaim;
And heav’n’s exalted arches ring
with thy most honoured name.
Luke 4:18,19: Hark, the glad sound, the Saviour comes!
Hail to the Lord's Anointed
Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 842 hymnals Scripture: Luke 4:18 Lyrics: 1 Hail to the Lord's Anointed,
Great David's greater Son!
Hail in the time appointed,
His reign on earth begun!
He comes to break oppression,
To set the captive free;
To take away transgression,
And rule in equity.
2 He comes with succor speedy
To those who suffer wrong;
To help the poor and needy,
And bid the weak be strong;
To give them songs for sighing,
Their darkness turn to light,
Whose souls, condemned and dying,
Are precious in His sight,
3 He shall come down like showers
Upon the fruitful earth,
Love, joy, and hope, like flowers,
Spring in His path to birth:
Before Him, on the mountains,
Shall peace, the herald, go,
And righteousness, in fountains,
From hill to valley flow.
4 To Him shall prayer unceasing
And daily vows ascend;
His kingdom still increasing,
A kingdom without end:
The tide of time shall never
His covenant remove,
His name shall stand forever;
That Name to us is Love. Topics: Advent First; Jesus Christ His Ascension and Reign; Jesus Christ His Glory and Power; Jesus Christ His Life and Ministry; Jesus Christ His Name; New Birth Used With Tune: SHEFFIELD

I'll Praise My Maker While I've Breath
Author: Isaac Watts; John Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 527 hymnals Scripture: Luke 4:18 Lyrics: 1 I’ll praise my Maker while I’ve breath,
and when my voice is lost in death,
praise shall possess my noblest powers;
my days of praise are never past
while life and thought and being last
or immortality endures.
2 Happy are those whose hopes rely
on God the Lord, who made the sky,
and earth, the sea, the night and day;
his truth for ever stands secure,
he keeps his promise to the poor,
and none who seeks is turned away.
3 The Lord gives eyesight to the blind,
he calms and heals the troubled mind;
he sends the wounded conscience peace;
he helps the stranger in distress,
the widow and the fatherless,
and grants the prisoner glad release.
4 I’ll praise him while he lends me breath,
and when my voice is lost in death,
praise shall employ my noblest powers;
my days of praise shall are never past
while life and thought and being last
or immortality endures.

Praise the One Who Breaks the Darkness
Author: Rusty Edwards, b. 1955 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 18 hymnals Scripture: Luke 4:16-21 Lyrics: 1 Praise the One who breaks the darkness
With a liberating light;
Praise the One who frees the pris'ners
Turning blindness into sight.
Praise the One who preached the Gospel,
Healing ev'ry dread disease,
Calming storms, and feeding thousands
With the very Bread of peace.
2 Praise the One who blessed the children
With a strong, yet gentle word;
Praise the One who drove out demons
With the piercing two-edged sword.
Praise the one who brings cool water
To the desert's burning sand;
From this Well comes living water
Quenching thirst in ev'ry land.
3 Let us praise the Word incarnate,
Christ, who suffered in our place.
Jesus died and rose victorious
That we may know God by grace.
Let us sing for joy and gladness,
Seeing what our God has done;
Let us praise the true Redeemer,
Praise the One who makes us one. Topics: Society; Redeemer Used With Tune: BEACH SPRING
