O for a Thousand Lives to Give

My plea to God (with explanatory, but unsung, words in brackets):

O for a thousand lives to give [to missions]
[for] their great Redeemer's praise,
[lives reflecting] the glories of my God and King,
[lives which are] the triumphs of his grace.

Our gracious Master and our God,
assist us to proclaim,
to spread through all the earth abroad
the honors of thy name.

Amen, brother.

He breaks the power of cancelled sin.
He sets the prisoner free.
His blood can make the foulest clean,
His blood availed for me!

What a gospel! What a God we have!
He not only justifies us by the blood of Christ, but breaks the power of cancelled sin in our lives now. May He sanctify you, that you may glorify Him more and more and continue spreading abroad the honors of His name.
