Joy to the World ‎#197

197. Oh, thou God of my salvation

1 Oh, thou God of my salvation,
My Redeemer from all sin!
Moved by thy divine compassion,
Who hast died my heart to win,
I will praise thee:
Where shall I thy praise begin?

2 Though unseen, I love the Savior;
He hath brought salvation near--
Manifests his pardoning favor;
And when Jesus doth appear,
Soul and body
Shall his glorious image bear.

3 Angels now, are hov'ring round us,
Unperceived amid the throng,
Wond'ring at the love that crowned us,
Glad to join the holy song:
Hallelujah!
Love and praise to Christ belong.
