O could I speak the matchless worth

Author: Samuel Medley Hymnal: TH1961 #126 (1961) Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6.6 Lyrics: 1 O could I speak the matchless worth, O could I sound the glories forth Which in my Saviour shine, I'd soar, and touch the heavenly strings, And vie with Gabriel while he sings In notes almost divine, In notes almost divine. 2 I'd sing the precious blood he spilt, My ransom from the dreadful guilt Of sin, and wrath Divine: I'd sing his glorious righteousness, In which all perfect, heav'nly dress My soul shall ever shine, My soul shall ever shine. 3 I'd sing the characters he bears, And all the forms of love he wears, Exalted on his throne: In loftiest songs of sweetest praise, I would to everlasting days Make all his glories known, Make all his glories known. 4 Well, the delightful day will come When my dear Lord will bring me home, And I shall see his face; Then with my Saviour, Brother, Friend, A blest eternity I'll spend, Triumphant in his grace, Triumphant in his grace. Amen.

For the Lord, our strong salvation, Holds in view the conqu'ror's crown, He who washed us with his blood, Soon will bring us home to God. 4 Let us wonder; grace and justice Join, and point to mercy's store; When through grace in Christ our trust is, Justice smiles, and asks no more: He who washed us with his blood, Has secured our way to God. 5 Let us praise, and join the chorus Of the saints enthroned on high; Here they trusted him before us, Now their praises fill the sky: "Thou hast washed us with thy blood; Thou art worthy, Lamb of God!"
