Christ shall be my Song

Hymnal: Triumphant Songs No.2 #73 (1889) First Line: Thou dear Redeemer, dying Lamb Refrain First Line: O let me ever hear thy voice Lyrics: 1 Thou dear Redeemer, dying Lamb, I love to hear of thee; No music’s like thy charming name, Nor half so dear can be, Nor half so dear can be. Refrain: O let me ever hear thy voice In mercy tome speak; In thee, my priest, will I rejoice, And thy salvation seek. 2 My Jesus dear shall be my theme, While in this world I stay; I’ll sing of Jesus’ lovely name When all things else decay, When all things else decay. [Refrain] 3 When I appear in yonder cloud, With all thy favored throng; Then will I sing more sweet, more loud, And Christ shall be my song, And Christ shall be my song. [Refrain] Tune Title: [Thou dear Redeemer, dying Lamb]
