Stretch forth to things eternal Lyrics: 1 Arise, my soul, arise! Stretch forth to things eternal And hasten to the feet of your Redeemer God. Though hid from mortal eyes, He dwells in light supernal; Yet worship Him in humbleness and call Him Lord. His banquet of love Awaits you above; Yet here He grants a foretaste of the feast to come! Rejoice, my soul, rejoice, To heav’n lift up your voice: Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia! 2 Now hear the harps of heav’n! Oh, hear the song victorious, The never-ending anthem sounding through the sky! To mortals is not giv’n To join in strains so glorious; Yet here on earth we too can sing our praises high! He bought with His blood The ransomed of God; To Him be everlasting pow’r and victory. And let the great amen Resound through heav’n again. Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia! Topics: Worship Adoration and Praise Tune Title: NYT YLÖS, SIELUNI
