451. To our Redeemer's glorious Name

1 To our Redeemer's glorious Name
Awake the sacred song;
OH, may His love (immortal flame!)
Tune every heart and tongue.

2 His love, what mortal thought can reach,
What mortal tongue display!
Imagination's utmost stretch
In wonder dies away.

3 He left His radiant throne on high,
Left the bright realms of bliss,
And came to earth to bleed and die:
Was ever love like this?

4 Dear Lord, while we adoring pay
Our humble thanks to Thee,
May every heart with rapture say,
"The Saviour died for me!"

5 Oh, may the sweet, the blissful theme,
Fill every heart and tongue,
Till strangers love Thy charming Name,
And join the sacred song.

Amen.
