Author: Anne Steele Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #150 (1899) Lyrics: 1 To our Redeemer's glorious name
Awake the sacred song!
Oh, 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 Jesus, who left His throne on high,
Left the brighter 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 died for me."
5 Oh, may the sweet, the blissful theme
Fill every heart and tongue,
Till strangers love Thy charming name,
And join the sacred song.
Amen. Topics: Christ Love of; Christ Praise to; Christ Redeemer; Praise To Christ Languages: English Tune Title: BRADFORD
