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 dying love;

Sing of his rising power,

Sing how he intercedes above,

For those whose sins he bore.



Sing on your heavenly way--

You ransom'd children sing--

Sing on rejoicing every day

In Christ our glorious King.



Soon shall you hear him say--

"You blessed children come:"

Soon will he call us hence away,

And take his pilgrims home.
