1
O for a thousand tongues to sing
My great Redeemer’s praise
The glories of my God and king
The triumphs of His grace
2
My gracious Master and my God
Assist me to proclaim
To spread through all the earth abroad
The honors of Thy name
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
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
5
To God all glory praise and love
Be now and ever given
By saints below and saints above
The Church in earth and Heaven

He sets the prisoner free
His blood can make the foulest clean
His blood availed for me
5
He speaks and listening to His voice
New life the dead receive
The mournful broken hearts rejoice
The humble poor believe
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
7
In Christ your head you then shall know
Shall feel your sins forgiven
Anticipate your heaven below
And own that love is heaven
8
Glory to God and praise and love
Be ever ever given
By saints below and saints above
The church in earth and Heaven
9
On this glad day the glorious sun
Of righteousness arose
On my benighted soul He shone
And filled it with repose
10
Sudden expired the legal strife
’Twas then I ceased to grieve
My second real living life
I then began to live
11
Then with my heart I first believed
Believed with faith divine
Power with the Holy Ghost received
To call the Savior mine
12
I felt my Lord’s atoning blood
Close to my soul applied
Me me He loved the Son of God
For me for me He died
13
I found and owned His promise true
Ascertained of my part
My pardon passed in heaven I knew
When written on my heart
14
Look unto Him ye nations own
Your God ye fallen race
Look and be saved through faith alone
Be justified by grace
15
See all your sins on Jesus laid:
The Lamb of God was slain
His soul was once an offering made
For every soul of man
16
Awake from guilty nature’s sleep
And Christ shall give you light
Cast all your sins into the deep
And wash the Æthiop white
17
Harlots and publicans and thieves
In holy triumph join
Saved is the sinner that believes
From crimes as great as mine
18
Murderers and all ye hellish crew
Ye sons of lust and pride
Believe the Savior died for you
For me the Savior died
19
With me your chief ye then shall know
Shall feel your sins forgiven
Anticipate your heaven below
And own that love is heaven
