O For A Thousand Tongues (New)

 Verse 1

O for a thousand tongues to sing

My great Redeemers praise,

My great Redeemers praise

The glories of my God and King,

The triumphs of His grace! (x4)

[Women echo x3]



Verse 2

My gracious Master and my God,

Assist me to proclaim,

Assist me to proclaim

To spread through all the earth abroad

The honors of Thy name. (x4)

Verse 3

Jesus! the name that charms 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. (x4)

He breaks the power of reigning sin,

He sets the prisoner free;

He sets the prisoner free;

His blood can make the foulest clean,

His blood availed for me. (x4)

[Women echo x3]


Verse 5

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. (x4)

Hear Him, ye deaf; His praise, ye dumb,

Your loosened tongues employ;

Your loosened tongues employ;

Ye blind, behold your Savior come,

And leap, ye lame, for joy. (x4)

Glory to God, and praise and love

Be ever, ever given,

Be ever, ever given,

By saints below and saints above,

The church in earth and heaven. (x4)

I felt my Lord's atoning blood

Close to my soul applied;

Close to my soul applied;

Me, me He loved, the Son of God,

For me, for me He died! (x4)

Verse 9

See all your sins on Jesus laid:

The Lamb of God was slain,

The Lamb of God was slain,

His soul was once an offering made

For many souls of men. (x4)

Verse 10

Harlots and publicans and thieves

In holy triumph join!

In holy triumph join!

Saved is the sinner that believes

From crimes as great as mine. (x4)
