O Bless the Saviour's Name

Author: L. H. Edmunds Hymnal: Sunday-School Praises #152 (1900) First Line: O bless the Saviour's name! Refrain First Line: Wonderful Saviour Lyrics: 1 O bless the Saviour’s name! His mighty grace proclaim, His mercy ‘round our earthly pathway cast; The Shepherd found his sheep, His ransomed flock he’ll keep, And lead them to his upper fold at last. Refrain: Wonderful Saviour, Thee will I adore! On wings of gladness Love shall heav’nward soar; Leading me onward tenderly, Help me to follow trustfully, Till in thy home thy face I see, Singing forevermore. 2 He bore the cross for me, He set the sinner free; He sought me and my wand’ring soul restored; He keeps me day by day, He helps me on my way; He fills my mouth with singing, praise the Lord. [Refrain] 3 No want my heart shall know, For Jesus will bestow The blessing that he sees is best for me; With him I leave my care, For he will answer prayer, And to his name eternal praise shall be. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [O bless the Saviour's name!]
