O For A Thousand Tongues To Sing

##

Nathan Drake, Charles Wesley

G                          
O for a thousand tongues to sing
                    D/F#
My great Redeemer’s praise,
    G                     Em
The glories of my God and King,
    C               G
The triumphs of His grace.


   G                          
My gracious Master and my God, 
                D/F#
Assist me to proclaim, 
   G                      Em
To spread through all the earth abroad 
    C             G
The honors of Thy name.

G      
Hear Him, ye deaf; His praise, ye dumb
                         D/F#
Your loosened tongues employ
   G                  Em
Ye blind, behold your Savior come
    C                G
And leap ye lame for joy.

G                          
He breaks the power of canceled sin, 
                     D/F#
He sets the prisoner free; 
    G                          Em
His blood can make the foulest clean, 
    C                 G
His blood availed for me.


      G                          
He speaks, and, listening to His voice, 
                                D/F#
New life the dead receive, 
    G                Em
The mournful, broken hearts rejoice, 
        C                      G
The humble poor believe.

G                          
Jesus, the Name that charms our fears 
                      D/F#
That bids our sorrows cease;
     G            Em
'Tis music in the sinner's ears,
     C                     G
'Tis life, and health, and peace.


G                          
See all your sins on Jesus laid 
                                      D/F#
The Lamb of God was slain, 
       G                           Em
His soul was once an offering made 
       C                  G
For every soul in pain.


G                          
Glory to God, and praise and love 
              D/F#
Be ever, ever given, 
   G                Em
By saints below and saints above, 
    C                   G
The church in earth and heaven.


G                          
O for a thousand tongues to sing
                    D/F#
My great Redeemer’s praise,
    G             Em
The glories of my God and King,
    C               G
The triumphs of His grace.
