Composer: | W. H. Walter, Mus. Doc. |
1 Awake, and sing the song
Of Moses and the Lamb!
Wake every heart and every tongue
To praise the Saviour's Name.
2 Sing of His dying love!
Sing of His rising power!
Sing how He intercedes above
For those whose sins He bore!
3 Sing on your heavenly way!
Ye ransomed sinners, sing!
Sing on, rejoicing every day
In Christ the Eternal King.
4 Soon shall ye hear Him say,
"Ye blessèd children, come."
Soon will He call you hence away,
And take His wanderers home.
5 There shall our raptured tongue
His endless praise proclaim,
And sweeter voices swell the song
Of glory to the Lamb.
Amen.
