Now Let Us Raise Our Cheerful Strains

Author: Anne Steele Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 74 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Now let us raise our cheerful strains, And join the blissful choir above; There our exalted Savior reigns, And there they sing His wondrous love. 2 While seraphs tune th’immortal song; O may we feel the sacred flame; And every heart and every tongue Adore the Savior’s glorious name. 3 Jesus, who once upon the tree In agonizing pains expired, Who died for rebels—yes, ’tis He! How bright! how lovely! how admired! 4 Jesus, who died that we might live, Died in the wretched traitor’s place— O what returns can mortals give, For such immeasurable grace? 5 Were universal nature ours, And art with all her boasted store, Nature and art with all their powers, Would still confess the offerer poor! 6 Yet tho’ for bounty so divine, We ne’er can equal honors raise, Jesus, may all our hearts be Thine, And all our tongues proclaim Thy praise.
