Verse 1

'Tis the grandest theme thro' the ages rung; 'Tis the grandest theme for a mortal tongue; 'Tis the grandest theme that the world e'er sung: Our God is able to deliver thee.

Chorus

He is able to deliver thee, He is able to deliver thee; Tho' by sin opprest, Go to Him for rest; Our God is able to deliver thee.

'Tis the grandest them in the earth or main; 'Tis the grandest theme for a mortal strain; 'Tis the grandest theme, tell the world again: Our God is able to deliver thee.

He is able to deliver thee, He is able to deliver thee; Tho' by sin opprest, Go to Him for rest; Our God is able to deliver thee.

'Tis the grandest theme, let the tidings roll To the guilty heart, to the sinful soul; Look to God in faith, He will make thee whole: Our God is able to deliver thee.

Chorus

He is able to deliver thee, He is able to deliver thee; Tho' by sin opprest, Go to Him for rest; Our God is able to deliver thee.
