O, for a thousand tongues to sing, my great Redeemer's praise, the glories of my God and King, the triumphs of His grace. And follow the things that will surprise us in the resurrection morning. This, I believe, will surprise us the most. That we did not love Christ more before we died. Jesus Christ, the Lord, we accept with thankful heart the hope that gracious words impart. We come with trembling yet rejoice and bless the kind inviting voice. Dear Savior, let thy powerful love confirm our faith, our fears removed. And sweetly influence every breast and guide us to eternal rest. Still.
