Lyrics
Begin, my tongue, some heav'nly theme
And speak some boundless thing;
The mighty works or mightier name
Of our eternal King.
Tell of His wondrous faithfulness
And sound His pow'r abroad;
Sing the sweet promise of His grace,
The love and truth of God
His very word of grace is strong
As that which built the skies;
The Voice that rolls the stars along
Speaks all the promises.
O might I hear the heav'nly Tongue
But whisper, "Thou art mine!"
Those gentle words shall raise my song
To notes almost divine.
And speak some boundless thing;
The mighty works or mightier name
Of our eternal King.
Tell of His wondrous faithfulness
And sound His pow'r abroad;
Sing the sweet promise of His grace,
The love and truth of God
His very word of grace is strong
As that which built the skies;
The Voice that rolls the stars along
Speaks all the promises.
O might I hear the heav'nly Tongue
But whisper, "Thou art mine!"
Those gentle words shall raise my song
To notes almost divine.
