Lyics

Awake! and sing the song

Of Moses and the Lamb;

Wake ev'ry heart and ev'ry tongue

To praise the Saviour's name.



Sing of his mighty love;

Sing of his rising pow'r;

Sing how he interceeds above,

For those whose sins he bore



Sing till we feel our hearts

Ascending with our tongues;

Sing till the love of sin departs,

And grace inspires our songs.



Sing on your heav'nly way-

Ye ransom'd sinners sing;

Sing on rejoicing every day,

In Christ the conq'ring king.



Soon shall ye hear him say,

Ye blessed children come;

Soon will he call you hence away,

And take his pilgrims home.
