09/17/2002 Entry: "CW again"

More from the pen of Charles Wesley, a hymn written for the first anniversary of his conversion.

O for a thousand tongues to singMy great Redeemer’s praise,The glories of my God and King,The triumphs of His grace!

My gracious Master and my God,Assist me to proclaim,To spread through all the earth abroadThe honors of Thy name.

Jesus - the name that charms our fears,That bids our sorrows cease;’Tis music in the sinner’s ears,’Tis life, and health, and peace.

He breaks the power of cancelled sin,He sets the prisoner free;His blood can make the foulest clean,His blood availed for me.

He speaks; and, listening to His voice,New life the dead receive,The mournful, broken hearts rejoice,The humble poor believe.

Hear Him, ye deaf; His praise, ye dumb,Your loosened tongues employ;Ye blind, behold your Savior come,And leap, ye lame, for joy.

See all your sins on Jesus laid:The Lamb of God was slain,His soul was once an offering madeFor every soul of man.

In Christ your Head, you then shall know,Shall feel your sins forgiven;Anticipate your heaven below,And own that love is heaven.
