Begin, My Tongue, Some Heavenly Theme
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 299 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 147:3-5 Lyrics: 1 Begin, my tongue, some heavenly theme,
And speak some boundless thing,
The mighty works, or mightier name,
Of our eternal King.
2 Tell of His wondrous faithfulness,
And sound His power abroad;
Sing the sweet promise of His grace,
And our redeeming God.
3 His very word of grace is strong
As that which built the skies;
The voice that rolls the stars along
Speaks all the promises.
4 O might I hear Thy heavenly tongue
But whisper, "Thou art Mine,"
Those gentle words should raise my song
To notes almost divine.

Ten thousand thousand charms unfold;
Each, air, and mighty seas combine
To speak his wisdom all-divine.

Where'er they rest or roam,
Have heard thy voice in distant lands,
And hasten to their home. Topics: The Christian Church Missionary; Emancipation Day
