1. O for a thousand tongues to sing
my great Redeemer’s praise,
the glories of my God and King,
the triumphs of his grace.
2. My gracious Master and my God,
assist me to proclaim,
to spread thro’ all the earth abroad
the honors of thy name.
3. 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.
4. He breaks the pow’r of reigning sin,
he sets the pris’ner free;
his blood can make the foulest clean,
his blood availed for me.
5. He speaks, and list’ning to his voice,
new life the dead receive;
the mournful, broken hearts rejoice;
the humble poor believe.
6. Hear him, ye deaf; his praise, ye dumb,
your loosen’d tongues employ;
ye blind, behold your Savior come;
and leap, ye lame, for joy.
7. To God all glory, praise, and love
be now and ever giv’n;
by saints below and saints above,
the church in earth and heav’n.

NEW! This PowerPoint File has been recently updated to our new format!
Updated Format! Beginning in November of 2016, we changed the way we formatted our PowerPoint files. The font is larger and the staff lines are bolder, making the songs easier to read from a greater distance, including smaller screens/monitors in the rear of the sanctuary.
All songs digitized previous to that date are in the "older" format.
