I don't normally go on the Methodist side of things, but I do like the hymns of Charles Wesley. This is one that resonates with my Spirit:
O For a Thousand Tongues to Sing
Verse 1
O for a thousand tongues to sing
My dear Redeemer's praise!
The glories of my God and King,
The triumphs of His grace!
Verse 2
My gracious Master, and my God,
Assist me to proclaim,
To spread through all the earth abroad
The honors of thy name.
Verse 3
Jesus, the name that charms our fears
That bids our sorrows cease----
'Tis music in the sinners' ears,
'Tis life, and health, and peace.
From John and Charles Wesley: Selected Prayers, Hymns, and Sermons, Harper Collins San Francisco Publishing, (c) 1981, 2004.
