1 O for a thousand tongues to sing
My great Redeemer's praise,
My great Redeemer 's praise,
The glories of my Lord and King,
The triumphs of His grace.
2 Jesus,the name that calms our fears,
That bids our sorrows cease,
That bids our sorrows cease;
'Tis music in the sinner's ears,
'Tis life,and health, and peace.
3 He speaks-and, listening to his voice,
New life the dead receive,
New life the dead receive;
The mournful. broken hearts rejoice,
The humble poor believe.
4 My gracious Master and my Lord,
Assist me to proclaim,
Assist me to proclaim;
To spread through all the earth abroad
The honours of the Name.
