My gracious Master and my God Assist me to proclaim To spread through all the earth abroad The honours of Thy name.

Verse 3

Jesus! the name that charms our fears That bids our sorrows cease; 'Tis music in the sinner's ears, 'Tis life, and health, and peace.

Verse 4

He breaks the power of cancelled sin He sets the prisoner free; His blood can make the foulest clean His blood availed for me.

He speaks, and, listening to His voice New life the dead receive, The mournful, broken hearts rejoice, The humble poor believe.

Verse 6

Hear Him, ye deaf; His praise, ye dumb Your loosened tongues employ Ye blind, behold your Saviour come, And leap, ye lame, for joy.
