Hymn: “O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing” by Charles Wesley


O for a thou­sand tongues to sing
My great Re­deem­er’s praise,
The glo­ries of my God and King,
The tri­umphs of His grace!

My gra­cious Mas­ter and my God,
Assist me to pro­claim,
To spread through all the earth abroad
The hon­ors of Thy name.

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.

He breaks the pow­er of can­celed sin;
He sets the pri­son­er free;
His blood can make the foul­est clean,
His blood availed for me.

He speaks, and, list­en­ing to His voice,
New life the dead re­ceive,
The mourn­ful, brok­en hearts re­joice,
The hum­ble poor be­lieve.

Hear Him, ye deaf; His praise, ye dumb,
Your loos­ened tongues em­ploy;
Ye blind, be­hold your Sav­ior come,
And leap, ye lame, for joy.

Listen to the message “Behaving.”
