Text:O that I had an angel's tongue
Author:J. Mason

79. O that I had an angel's tongue

1 O that I had an angel's tongue,
That I might loudly sing
The wonders of redeeming love
To Thee, my God and King!

2 Let the redeeméd of the Lord
Their thankful voices raise:
Can we be dumb whilst angels sing
Our great Redeemer's praise?

3 O sing aloud in boundless grace
Which thus hath set us free;
Extol with songs, my savéd soul,
The Savior's love to Thee.

4 Give endless thanks to God, and say,
What love was this in Thee,
That Thou hast not withheld Thy Son,
Thine only Son, from me?
