9573. Awake With Joy, Salute The Morn!

1 Awake with joy, salute the morn!
The Savior of mankind is born,
The Savior of mankind is born.
Awake and tune your voice to sing
Hosanna to the newborn King!

Refrain:
Hark! Hark! the heav’nly angels sing;
Hark! Hark! the heav’nly angels sing,
Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna!
Hosanna to the newborn King!
Hark! Hark! the heav’nly angels sing;
Hark! Hark! the heav’nly angels sing,
Hosanna, hosanna, hosanna!
Hosanna to the newborn King!

2 Lo, see the shepherds on the plains,
They shout, and sing melodious strains,
They shout, and sing melodious strains!
They left their flocks and herds behind,
The Lord and Savior for to find. [Refrain]

3 See Heav’n’s great Heir—a virgin’s Son!
Behold a manger for His throne!
Behold a manger for His throne!
With rapture view the Lamb of God,
Born to redeem us with His blood. [Refrain]
