Luke 1:47
ENGLISH
1. Oh for a thousand tongues to sing
My dear Redeemer's praise,
The glories of my God and King,
The triumphs of His grace!
2. 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.
3. He breaks the pow'r of cancell'd sin,
And sets the prisoner free;
His blood can make the foulest clean;
His blood avail'd for me.
4. He speaks and, listening to His voice,
New life the dead receive;
The mournful broken hearts rejoice,
The humble poor believe.
5. Hear Him, ye deaf; His praise, ye dumb,
Your loosen'd tongues employ;
Ye blind, behold your Saviour come,
And leap, ye lame, for joy!
6. My gracious Master and my God,
Assist me to proclaim
And spread through all the earth
abroad
The honours of Thy name.
Amen.

Emi ‘ba n‘egberun ahon,
Fun ‘yin Olugbala,
Ogo Olorun Oba mi,
Isegun ore Re.
Jesu t‘o seru wa d‘ayo
T‘o mu banuje tan
Orin ni l‘eti elese

O segun agbara ese
O da onde sile,
Eje Re le w‘eleri mo,
Eje Re seun fun mi
O soro, oku gb‘ohun Re,
O gba emi titun,

Baba mi at‘Olorun mi,
Fun mi ni ‘ranwo Re;
Ki nle ro ka gbogbo aye,
Ola oruko Re.
