We’ll Sing All Hail to Jesus’ Name
We’ll Sing All Hail to Jesus’ Name
1. We’ll sing all hail to Jesus’ name
And praise and honor give
To him who bled on Calvary’s hill
And died that we might live.
2. He passed the portals of the grave;
Salvation was his song;
He called upon the sin-bound soul
To join the heavenly throng.
3. He seized the keys of death and hell
And bruised the serpent’s head;
He bid the prison doors unfold,
The grave yield up her dead.
4. The bread and water represent
His sacrifice for sin;
Ye Saints partake and testify
Ye do remember him.
5. The sacrament the soul inspires
And calms the human breast;
Points to the time when faithful Saints
Shall enter into rest.
6. Then hail, all hail, to such a Prince
Who saves us by his blood!
He’s marked the way and bids us tread
The path that leads to God.
