XLI. Praise to the Son of GOD

1 To our Redeemer's glorious name,
Awake the sacred song!
O may his love (immortal flame!)
Tune every heart and tongue.

2 His love, what mortal thought can reach?
What mortal tongue display?
Imagination's utmost stretch
In wonder dies away.

3 He left his radiant throne on hight,
Left the bright realms of bliss,
And came to earth to bleed and die!
Was ever love like this!

4 Dear Lord, while we adoring pay
Our humble thanks to thee,
May every heart with rapture say,
The Saviour dy'd for me.

5 O may the sweet, the blissful theme
Fill every heart and tongue,
Till strangers love thy charming name,
And join the sacred song.
