O for a heart to praise my God
Author: Rev. Chas. Wesley Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,162 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O for a heart to love my God,
A heart from sin set free!
A heart that's sprinkled with the blood,
So freely shed for me;
2 A heart resigned, submissive, meek,
My dear Redeemer's throne,
Where only Christ is heard to speak,
Where Jesus reigns alone;
3 An humble, lowly, contrite heart,
Believing, true, and clean;
Which neither life nor death can part
From Him that dwells within.
4 A heart in every thought renewEd,
And full of love divine,
Perfect, and right, and pure, and good,
A copy, Lord, of Thine!
5 Thy nature, gracious Lord, impart;
Come quickly from above;
Write Thy new Name upon my heart,
Thy new, best Name of Love.
Amen. Used With Tune: [O for a heart to praise my God]
O for a heart to praise my God
O for a thousand tongues to sing
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,733 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O for a thousand tongues to sing
my dear 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 cancelled sin,
he sets the prisoner free:
his blood can make the foulest clean;
his blood availed for me.
4 He speaks; and, listening to his voice,
new life the dead receive,
the mournful broken hearts rejoice,
the humble poor believe.
5 Hear him, ye deaf; his praise, ye dumb,
your loosened tongues employ;
ye blind, behold your Saviour come;
and leap, ye lame, for joy!
6 My gracious Master and my God,
assist me to proclaim
and spread through all the earth abroad
the honours of thy name. Topics: Joy, Praise and Thanksgiving; Year B Advent 3; Year C Bible Sunday; Year C Epiphany 3 Scripture: Acts 3:8 Used With Tune: SELBY
