Verse 1
Let earth and heav’n agree,
Angels and men be joined,
To celebrate with me
The Saviour of mankind;
To adore the all-atoning Lamb,
And bless the sound of Jesus’ name.
Verse 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 to the world to save.
Verse 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 Jesu’s face.
Verse 4
His name the sinner hears,
And is from sin set free:
‘Tis life and victory;
New songs do now his lips employ.
And dances his glad heart for joy.
Verse 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.
Verse 6
O unexampled love!
O all-redeeming grace!
How swiftly didst Thou move
To save a fallen race!
what shall I do to make it known
What Thou for all mankind hast done?
Verse 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 Saviour died!
Charles Wesley.
