"O for a Thousand Tongues" - Songtext
von Chris Rice

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

And if I had a thousand tongues
Still, I could never sing enough

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

And if I had a thousand tongues
Still, I could never sing enough

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


And if I had a thousand tongues
Still, I could never sing enough

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

And if I had a thousand tongues
Still, I could never sing enough

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

And if I had a thousand tongues
Still, I could never sing enough

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


The glories of my God and King
The triumphs of His grace
