We love to sing Thy praises,
O Jesus Christ the Lord;
It is our new-born gladness
Thy goodness to record:
The one absorbing treasure
That fills our heart and eye
Is love that came to suffer,
For enemies to die.
Oh, love beyond all telling,
Beyond all ken or thought,
Which Thou, O blessed Saviour,
To us from heaven hast brought!
In Thee we see united
Both God and man in One;
Hence power and love unmeasured
Combined in Thee are shown.
The power of the Creator
Gives glory to Thy name;
The love of the Redeemer
Enhances all Thy fame:
Creator and Redeemer,
Almighty Saviour Lord,
The power and love that saved us
For ever be adored.
