What tongue can express

Verse 1
What tongue can express
The great actions of Grace,
The miracles done
By the Lover of souls, in behalf of his own,
His exploits to set free
Such a sinner as me,
To redeem a poor slave
From the bondage of sin and of Satan to save!

Verse 2
By his wonderful Name
Out of Egypt I came,
Thro’ the sea of his blood
He hath brought me a justified sinner, to God:
In the wilderness led
By miracles fed
And upheld by his hand,
I at last shall arrive at the heavenly land.
