O, for a thousand tongues to sing My dear Redeemer's praise! The glories of my God and King, The triumphs of His grace! My gracious Master and my God! Assist me to proclaim, To spread through all the earth abroad, The honors of Thy name. Jesus--the name that calms my fears, That bids my sorrows cease; 'Tis music to my ravished ears; 'Tis life, and health, and peace. He breaks the power of canceled sin, He sets the prisoner free; His blood can make the foulest clean; His blood availed for me. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...TO A DOG'S MEMORY by LOUISE IMOGEN GUINEY TO RUSSIA by CINCINNATUS HEINE MILLER RIDDLE by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD THE LAY OF ST.
