Let Us Awake Our Joys

Author: William Kingsbury Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Appears in 89 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Let us awake our joys, Strike up with cheerful voice— Each creature sing; Angels—begin the song, Mortals—the strains prolong, In accents sweet and strong— "Jesus is King." 2 Proclaim abroad His name, Tell of His matchless fame— What wonders done; Shout through hell’s dark profound; Let the whole earth resound, Till the high heavens resound— "The victory’s won." 3 He vanquished sin and hell, And the last foe will quell; Mourners rejoice! His dying love adore; Praise Him now raised in power, And triumph ever more, With a glad voice. 4 All hail the glorious day When thro’ the heavenly way, Lo, He shall come! While they who pierced Him wail, His promise shall not fail; Saints, see your king prevail: Come, dear Lord, come!

The world to Christ we bring, With joyful song; The newborn souls, whose days, Reclaimed from error's ways, Inspired with hope and praise, To Christ belong.
