O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing Songtext
von Norton Hall Band

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

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 sorrow cease
′Tis music in the sinner's ears
'Tis life, and health, and peace

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

He speaks, and list′ning to his voice
New life the dead receive
The mournful, broken hearts rejoice
The humble poor believe

Glory to God and praise and love
Be ever, ever giv′n
By saints below and saints above
The Church in earth and heav'n


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