O that I had a thousand voices
To praise my God with thousand tongues!
My ransomed soul in grace rejoices,
And grateful praise shall fill my songs.
I'll sing wherever I might be
What great things God hath done for me.
All creatures that have breath and motion,
That throng the earth, the sea, the sky,
Now join my song with heart's devotion,
Help me to raise His praises high.
My utmost pow'rs can ne'er aright
Declare the wonders of His might.
O Father, hear me, I beseech Thee,
Though here I lisp my earthly lays;
A nobler strain in heav'n shall reach Thee,
When I with angels hymn Thy praise
And learn amid their choirs to sing
Loud hallelujahs to my King.
