“By Deaf Who Praise”
May Jesus Christ be praised above,
For sovereignty, for grace and love;
May Jesus Christ be praised in lands
By Deaf who praise with signing hands;
For Deaf who may not speak a word,
And having ears have never heard,
May still exalt the Saviour’s name;
With hands or voice—it’s all the same.
