Sing To Jesus, O My Spirit

Representative Text

1 Sing to Jesus, O my spirit,
Songs of faith that praise His merit,
Praise His grace and praise His peace,
Praise His love that can not cease.

2 Sing to Him that came from heaven,
Sing of all that He has given,
Sing it joyfully abroad:
Praise and honor be to God!

3 Let thy songs of heavenly graces
Rise to high celestial places;
Sing with angels in accord:
Glory be to Christ, our Lord!

4 Sing the blessed Christmas tiding:
Jesus is with us abiding;
He who came that Christmas-night
Is our Joy and Hope and Light.

5 Sing, so hearts with joy are beating,
Of the last and glorious meeting,
When the Son of God shall come
In the sky to call us home.
