Lyics

Now let me rise, 

Now let me rise,

Now let me rise and join their song,

And be an an-gel too:

My soul, my heart, my ear, my tongue,

My soul, my heart, my ear, my tongue,

My soul, my heart, my ear, my tongue,

Here's joyful work for you.



Now Let me rise and join their song,

And be an angel too:

My soul, my heart, my ear, my tongue,

Here' joyful work for you.



I would begin the music here,

And so my zeal shall rise,

O for some heavenly notes to bear

My passions to the skies!



There ye that love my Saviour sit,

There I would fain have place,

Among your thrones, or at your feet,

So I might see his face.
