Immanuel, Prince of Peace

Verse 1

Oh, sing that song to me again, Whose charm doth never cease, Of Him who died for sinful men: Immanuel, Prince of Peace; The peerless One of all the throng Who’ve walked our earthly sod; The sweetest name that lives in song: Christ Jesus, Son of God.

Chorus

Oh, sing that song to me again, Whose charm doth never cease, Of Him who died for sinful men: Immanuel, Prince of Peace.

Verse 2

When I, a lisping infant, lay Upon my mother’s knee, She told me in the twilight gray, How Jesus died for me; She sang a song of Heav’n and God I never can forget; And tho’ she sleeps beneath the sod, Her song is living yet.

Verse 3

Oh, song of songs, that grows sublime As onward roll the years, Oh, story woven into rhyme, That melts the heart to tears; I love, I love to hear that song, It fills my soul with joy; To Him all songs of praise belong Which mortal tongues employ.
