O for a thousand tongues to sing Words: Charles Wesley 1707-88 Tune: OXFORD NEW

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.

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.

Melody in Isaac Smith Psalm Tunes, c1779
