403. To Our Redeemer's Glorious Name

1 To our Redeemer's glorious name
Awake the sacred song!
O may His love, immortal flame,
Tune ev'ry heart and tongue,
Tune ev'ry heart and tongue.

2 His love what human tho't can reach,
What mortal tongue portray?
Imagination's utmost stretch
In wonder dies away,
In wonder dies away.

3 He left His radiant throne on high,
Bright realms of heav'nly bliss,
And came to earth to bleed and die--
Was ever love like this?
Was ever love like this?

4 Dear Lord, while we adoring pay
Our humble thanks to Thee,
May ev'ry heart with rapture say,
The Savior died for me,
The Savior died for me.

5 O may the sweet, the blissful theme
Fill ev'ry heart and tongue,
Till strangers love Thy charming name
And join the sacred song!
And join the sacred song!

Amen.
