370. O thou God of my salvation

Full Text

1 O thou God of my salvation,
My redeemer from all sin,
Moved by thy divine compassion,
Who hast died my heart to win,
I will praise the e;
Where shall I thy praise begin?

2 Though unseen, I love the Saviour;
He hath brought salvation near,
Manifests his pardoning favour
And within me doth appear;
Soul and body
Then his glorious image bear.

3 While the angel choirs are crying:
Glory to the great I AM!
I with them will still be vying,
Glory, glory to the Lamb!
O how precious
Is the sound of Jesus’ name!

4 Angels now are hovering round us
Unperceived amid the throng,
Wondering at the love that found us,
Glad to join our holy song;
Hallelujah!
Love and praise to Christ belong.
