Representative Text

1. Oh, sing that song to me again,
Whose charm doth never cease,
Of Him who died for sinful men:
Immanuel, Prince of Peace;
The peerless One of all the throng
Who’ve walked our earthly sod;
The sweetest name that lives in song:
Christ Jesus, Son of God.

Refrain
Oh, sing that song to me again,
Whose charm doth never cease,
Of Him who died for sinful men:
Immanuel, Prince of Peace.

2. When I, a lisping infant, lay
Upon my mother’s knee,
She told me in the twilight gray,
How Jesus died for me;
She sang a song of Heav’n and God
I never can forget;
And tho’ she sleeps beneath the sod,
Her song is living yet. [Refrain]

3. Oh, song of songs, that grows sublime
As onward roll the years,
Oh, story woven into rhyme,
That melts the heart to tears;
I love, I love to hear that song,
It fills my soul with joy;
To Him all songs of praise belong
Which mortal tongues employ. [Refrain]
