Poem Words (five verses)
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!
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.
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,
Sings music in the sinner's ears,
Brings life and health and peace.
And bids our sorrows cease,
Sings music in the sinner's ears,
Brings life and health and peace.
4.
He breaks the pow'r of canceled sin;
He sets the pris'ner free.
His blood can make the foulest clean;
His blood avails for me.
He sets the pris'ner free.
His blood can make the foulest clean;
His blood avails for me.
5.
To God all glory, praise, and love
Be now and ever giv'n
By saints below and saints above,
The Church in earth and heav'n.
Be now and ever giv'n
By saints below and saints above,
The Church in earth and heav'n.
