  1. 1To our Redeemer's glorious name
  2. Awake the sacred song!
  3. O may His love, immortal flame,
  4. Tune ev'ry heart and tongue,
  5. Tune ev'ry heart and tongue.
  6. 2His love what human tho't can reach,
  7. What mortal tongue portray?
  8. Imagination's utmost stretch
  9. In wonder dies away,
  10. In wonder dies away.
  11. 3He left His radiant throne on high,
  12. Bright realms of heav'nly bliss,
  13. And came to earth to bleed and die--
  14. Was ever love like this?
  15. Was ever love like this?
  16. 4Dear Lord, while we adoring pay
  17. Our humble thanks to Thee,
  18. May ev'ry heart with rapture say,
  19. The Savior died for me,
  20. The Savior died for me.
  21. 5O may the sweet, the blissful theme
  22. Fill ev'ry heart and tongue,
  23. Till strangers love Thy charming name
  24. And join the sacred song!
  25. And join the sacred song!
  26. 6Amen.
