"He is precious"

Appears in 773 hymnals Topics: Christ Resurrection of First Line: Oh, could I speak the matchless worth 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 vie 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 songs 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.
