1. Let earth and heaven agree,
Angels and men be joined,
To celebrate with me
The Savior of mankind,
Adore the all-atoning Lamb,
And bless the sound of Jesus’ name.
2. Jesus! transporting sound!
The joy of earth and heaven!
No other help is found,
No other name is given,
By which we can salvation have;
But Jesus came the world to save.
3. Jesus! harmonious name!
It charms the hosts above;
They evermore proclaim,
And wonder at His love;
’Tis all their happiness to gaze,
’Tis heaven to see our Jesus’ face.
4. His name the sinner fears:
But when from sin set free,
’Tis music in his ears,
’Tis life and liberty;
New songs do then his lips employ,
And his grlad heart e’en leaps for joy.
5. Stung by the scorpion, sin,
My poor, expiring soul,
The balmy sound drinks in,
And is at once made whole.
See there my Lord upon the tree!
I hear, I feel, He died for me!
6. O unexampled love!
O all redeeming grace!
How swiftly Thou dost move
To save a fallen race!
What shall I do to make it known
What Thou for all mankind hast done?
7. O for a trumpet voice,
On all the world to call,
To bid their hearts rejoice
In Him who died for all!
For all, my Lord was crucified!
For all, for all, my Savior died!
