O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Voices United #326 (1996) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Proper 4 Year C Lyrics: 1 O for a thousand tongues to sing my great Redeemer's praise, the glories of my God and king, the triumphs of God's grace. 2 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. 3 He speaks, and listening to his voice, new life the dead receive, the mournful broken hearts rejoice, the humble poor believe. 4 Hear him, you deaf, you voiceless ones, your tongues again employ; you blind, behold your Saviour comes, and leap, you lame, for joy! 5 My gracious Master and my God, assist me to proclaim, to spread through all the earth abroad the honours of your name.
