LyicsAWAKE, and sing the song
Of Moses and the Lamb;
Wake, every heart and every tongue,
To praise the Saviour's name.
Sing of his dying love;
Sing of his rising power;
Sing how he intercedes above
For those whose sins he bore.
Sing on your heavenly way,
You ransomed sinners, sing;
Sing on, rejoicing every day
In Christ, the glorious King.
Soon shall you hear him say,
"You blessed children, come!"
Soon will he call you hence away,
And take his pilgrims home.
