Oh for a thousand tongues to sing

VERSE 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

VERSE 2
My gracious Master and my God
Assist me to proclaim
To spread through all the earth abroad
The honors of Thy name

VERSE 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

VERSE 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

VERSE 5
He speaks, and listening to His voice
New life the dead receive
The mournful, broken hearts rejoice
The humble poor believe

VERSE 6
Hear Him, ye deaf; His praise, ye dumb
Your loosened tongues employ
Ye blind, behold your Savior come
And leap, ye lame, for joy

VERSE 6
See all your sins on Jesus laid;
The Lamb of God was slain,
His soul was once an offering made
For ever soul of man.

Years I spent in vanity and pride,

Years I spent in vanity and pride,
Caring not my Lord was crucified,
Knowing not it was for me He died on Calvary.

Refrain

Mercy there was great, and grace was free;
Pardon there was multiplied to me;
There my burdened soul found liberty at Calvary.

By God’s Word at last my sin I learned;
Then I trembled at the law I’d spurned,
Till my guilty soul imploring turned to Calvary.

Refrain

Now I’ve given to Jesus everything,
Now I gladly own Him as my King,
Now my raptured soul can only sing of Calvary!

Refrain

Oh, the love that drew salvation’s plan!
Oh, the grace that brought it down to man!
Oh, the mighty gulf that God did span at Calvary!
