Representative Text

1 The love of Christ is full and free,
A never-ebbing, boundless sea;
‘Tis more than all the world to me:
O praise the Savior’s name!

Chorus:
O praise the Savior’s name,
His wondrous love proclaim;
On Cal’vry’s tree He died for thee:
O praise the Savior’s name!

2 Where’er I stray, He follows still,
And seeks me far o’er vale and hill;
His grace subdues my stubborn will:
O praise the Savior’s name! [Chorus]

3 Clad in His glorious strength I stand;
And, clinging to His mighty hand,
I soon shall reach the heav’nly land:
O praise the Savior’s name! [Chorus]

4 Christ is a faithful friend and true;
He’ll keep you all life’s journey thro’;
Now tell what He has done for you,
And praise the Savior’s name. [Chorus]

5 His love extends to all the race,
He is the reservoir of grace;
Now give Him in your heart a place,
And praise the Savior’s name. [Chorus]
