- 1To thee O blessed Savior,
- My heart exulting springs,
- Rejoicing in thy favor
- Almighty King of kings;
- I’ll celebrate thy glory
- With all the saints above,
- And tell the joyful story
- Of thy redeeming love.
- Fill all our hearts with gladness,
- And every mouth with praise,
- That we may swell the chorus
- And loud the anthem raise,
- To celebrate thy glory
- With all the saints above,
- And tell the joyful story
- Of thy redeeming love.
- 2Soon as the moon with roses
- Bedecks the dewy east;
- And when the sun reposes
- Upon the ocean’s breast,
- My voice in supplication
- O Savior, thou shalt hear,
- Grant me thy full salvation,
- And to my heart draw near.
- Fill all our hearts with gladness,
- And every mouth with praise,
- That we may swell the chorus
- And loud the anthem raise,
- To celebrate thy glory
- With all the saints above,
- And tell the joyful story
- Of thy redeeming love.
- 3By thee, through life supported,
- I pass the dangerous road,
- With heavenly hosts escorted
- Up to their bright abode;
- There cast my crown before thee,
- My toils and conflicts o’er,
- And with the hosts angelic
- Thy wondrous love adore.
- Fill all our hearts with gladness,
- And every mouth with praise,
- That we may swell the chorus
- And loud the anthem raise,
- To celebrate thy glory
- With all the saints above,
- And tell the joyful story
- Of thy redeeming love.
