O For a Thousand Tongues to Sing

By Charles Wesley


      1.
      O 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 thy name.

      3.
      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.

      4.
      He breaks the power of canceled sin,
      he sets the prisoner free;
      his blood can make the foulest clean;
      his blood availed 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.
      In Christ, your head, you then shall know,
      shall feel your sins forgiven;
      anticipate your heaven below,
      and own that love is heaven.
