146: WE bless our Saviour's name

146: WE bless our Saviour's name

by James George Deck (1802-1884)

1 WE bless our Saviour's name;
Our sins are all forgiven:
To suffer once to earth He came;
He now is crowned in heaven.

2 His precious blood was shed,
His body bruised for sin;
Remembering Him, we break the bread,
And, thankful, drink the wine.

3 Lord, let us ne'er forget
Thy rich, Thy precious love,
Our theme of joy and wonder here,
Our endless song above.

4 O let Thy love constrain
Our souls to cleave to Thee,
And ever in our hearts remain
That word, Remember me.
