Arise, my soul! with rapture rise!

Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms with occasional hymns (Charleston hymnal) #H.XLVI (1792) Lyrics: 1 Arise, my soul! with rapture rise! And, fill'd with love and fear, adore The awful Sov'reign of the skies, Whose mercy lends me one day more. 2 And may this day, indulgent Pow'r! Not idly pass, nor fruitless be; But may each swiftly-flying hour – Advance my soul more nigh to thee. 3 But can it be that Pow'r divine, Whose throne is light's unbounded blaze, While countless worlds and angels join, To swell the glorious song of praise – 4 Will deign to lend a fav'ring ear, When I, poor abject mortal pray? Yes, boundless goodness! he will hear, Nor cast the meanest wretch away. 5 Then let me serve thee all my days, And may my zeal with years increase: For pleasant, Lord! are all thy ways, And all thy paths are paths of peace.
