Oh, could I speak the matchless worth

Author: Medley Appears in 740 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 1:1 Lyrics: 1 Oh, could I speak the matchless worth, Oh, could I sound the glories forth, Which in my Saviour shine, I'd soar, and touch the heavenly strings, And view with Gabriel while he sings In notes almost divine. 2 I'd sing the precious blood he spilt, My ransom from the dreadful guilt Of sin and wrath divine; I'd sing his glorious righteousness, In which all-perfect, heavenly dress My soul shall ever shine. 3 I'd sing the characters he bears, And all the forms of love he wears, Exalted on his throne; In loftiest song of sweetest praise, I would to everlasting days Make all his glories known. 4 Well, the delightful day will come, When my dear Lord will bring me home, And I shall see his face; Then, with my Saviour, Brother, Friend, A blest eternity I'll spend, Triumphant in his grace.

Alexander, 1818-95 Meter: Irregular Appears in 68 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 1:1-9 Lyrics: 1 I bind unto myself today The strong name of the Trinity By invocation of the same, The Three in One and One in Three. 2 I bind this day to me forever, By pow'r of faith, Christ's incarnation, His Baptism in the Jordan River, His cross of death for my salvation, His bursting from the spiced tomb, His riding up the heavenly way, His coming at the day of doom, I bind unto myself today. 3 I bind unto myself today The pow'r of God to hold and lead, His eye to watch, His might to stay, His ear to harken to my need, The wisdom of my God to teach, His hand to guide, His shield to ward, The Word of God to give me speech, His heav'nly host to be my guard. 4 Against the demon snares of sin, The vice that gives temptation force, The natural lusts that war within, The hostile foes that mar my course; Or few or many, far or nigh, In ev'ry place and in all hours, Against their fierce hostility, I bind to me those holy pow'rs. 5 I bind unto myself the name, The strong name of the Trinity By invocation of the same, The Three in One and One in Three, Of whom all nature hath creation, Eternal Father, Spirit, Word. Praise to the Lord of my salvation; Salvation is of Christ the Lord! Topics: Baptismal Life Used With Tune: ST. PATRICK'S BREASTPLATE
