6961. Ten Thousand Thanks to Jesus

1. Ten thousand thanks to Jesus,
Whose life our ransom paid,
Whose blood a full atonement
For all the world has made.
Let every heart adore Him;
Let every creature sing
Ten thousand thanks to Jesus,
Our Savior and our King.

Refrain
Ten thousand thanks,
Ten thousand thanks,
We’ll praise Him o’er and o’er;
And for the life with Him to live,
Ten thousand thousand more!

2. Ten thousand thanks to Jesus;
How gladly would we give
Ten thousand lives to Jesus,
Had we so long to live.
Ten thousand tongues shall praise Him,
Ten thousand songs ascend
To Him, our blest Redeemer,
To Him, our dearest friend! [Refrain]

3. Ten thousand thanks to Jesus
For blessings every hour;
Ten thousand times ten thousand,
For love’s redeeming power;
And when we hear His welcome
Beyond the rolling sea,
His love thro’ endless ages
Our sweetest song shall be! [Refrain]
