Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal #10 (2011) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Now to the Lord and noble song! Lyrics: 1 Now to the Lord a noble song!
Awake, my soul, awake, my tongue,
Hosanna to th’Eternal Name,
And all His boundless love proclaim.
2 See where it shines in Jesus’ face,
The brightest image of His grace;
God, in the person of His Son,
Has all His mightiest works outdone.
3 Grace! ‘tis a sweet, a charming theme;
My thoughts rejoice at Jesus’ name!
Ye angels, dwell upon the sound;
Ye heav’ns, reflect it to the ground.
4 O may I reach the happy place,
Where He unveils His lovely face;
His beauties there may I behold,
And sing His name to harps of gold.
Amen. Topics: Worship and Praise Adoration; Jesus Abiding with Believers; Jesus Beauty of; Jesus Names and Titles Scripture: Psalm 138:2 Languages: English Tune Title: DUKE STREET
