LyicsJOIN all the glorious names
Of wisdom, love, and power,
That mortals ever knew,
That angels ever bore;
All are too mean to speak his worth,
Too mean to set my Saviour forth.
Great Prophet of my God!
My tongue would bless thy name,
By thee the joyful news
Of our salvation came;
The joyful news of sins forgiv'n,
Of hell subdued, and peace with heav'n.
Jesus, my great High Priest,
Offer'd his blood and died;
My guilty conscience seeks
No sacrifice beside.
His powerful blood did once atone,
And now he pleads before the throne.
My dear and mighty Lord,
My Conq'ror and my King;
Thy sceptre and thy sword,
Thy reigning grace, I sing.
Thine is the pow'r; behold I sit
In willing bonds beneath thy feet.
