Lyics

To our Redeemer's glorious name

Awake the sacred song;

O may His love (immortal flame!)

Tune every heart and tongue.



His love, what mortal thought can reach!

What mortal tongue display!

Imagination's utmost stretch

In wonder dies away.



He left His radiant throne on high,

Left the bright realms of bliss,

And came to earth to bleed and die!

Was ever love like this?



Blest Lord, while we adoring pay

Our humble thanks to Thee,

May every heart with rapture say,

"The Saviour died for me!"
