Sing songs from your heart to Christ.  Sing praises over everything, any excuse for a song to God the Father in the name of our Master, Jesus Christ .  ~  Ephesians 5:19-20, Msg.

Charles Wesley, on the first anniversary of his conversion, wrote an eighteen-stanza hymn of praise to the Lord. Verse seven began: “O for a thousand tongues to sing,” inspired by a statement he had once heard: “Had I a thousand tongues, I would praise Him with them all.”

Beginning with a 1767 hymnbook, the seventh stanza was made the first, and when John Wesley compiled his ‘Collection of Hymns’ in 1780, he chose this for the first hymn in the book.

Congregations today usually sing verses seven, eight, nine, and ten of Wesley’s original, which we know today as “O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing.”

O for a thousand tongues to sing

My great Redeemer’s praise,

The glories of my God and King,

The triumphs of His grace!
