Awake the sacred song!
O may his love, (immortal flame!)
Tune every heart and tongue.
2 His love, what mortal thought can reach?
What mortal tongue display?
Imagination's utmost stretch
In wonder dies away.
3 He left his radient throne on high,
Left the bright realms of bliss,
And came to earth to bleed and die!—
Was ever love like this!
4 Dear Lord, while we adoring pay
Our humble thanks to thee;
May every heart with rapture say,
"The savior dy'd for me."
5 O may the sweet, the blissful theme,
Fill every heart and tongue;
Till strangers love thy charming name,
And join the sacred song. Topics: The Lord's Supper; Praise to God the redeemer; Song of praise to the Redeemer Languages: English
