Author: W. Fullerton Hymnal: CCHB1974 #151 (1974) Meter: 8.8.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Hark to the voices of the earth,
That raise the song in solemn mirth,
And praise Thee for Thy human birth,
O Saviour of the World.
2 We praise Thee for the silent years,
The infant cries, the childhood fears,
The craftsman's toil, the hidden tears,
O Saviour of the World.
3 We thank Thee for Thy words of grace,
Thine acts of love, Thy steadfast face,
Thy succour for our thankless race,
O Saviour of the World.
4 And when Thy people scorned their King,
We praise Thee that Thy suffering
Did hope to all the nations bring,
O Saviour of the World.
5 Thy heralds are in all the lands,
Thine intercessors lift their hands,
Thy ransomed Church expectant stands,
O Saviour of the World.
6 Thy Cross is now uplifted high,
The centre of earth's history,
The sign of coming victory,
O Saviour of the World. Topics: The Lord Jesus Christ His Life and Ministry Languages: English
