Snow Meter: 8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 21 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Awake! ye saints of God! awake, Call on the Lord in migh­ty pray­er, That He will Zi­on’s bond­age break, And bring to naught the fowl­er’s snare. 2 He will re­gard His peo­ple’s cry— The wi­dow’s tear—the or­phan’s moan; The blood of those that slaugh­tered lie, Pleads not in vain be­fore His throne. 3 Though Zion’s foes have coun­seled deep, Altho’ they bind with fet­ters strong; The God of Ja­cob does not sleep— His ven­geance will not slum­ber long. 4 Then let your souls be stayed on God; A glo­ri­ous scene is draw­ing nigh: Tho’ tem­pests ga­ther like a flood, The storm, tho’ fierce, will soon pass by. 5 Our God in judg­ment will come near, His migh­ty arm He will make bare: For Zi­on’s sake He will ap­pear, Then Oh! ye saints! awake, pre­pare! 6 Awake to un­ion and be one, "Or" sa­ith the Lord, "you are not Mine"; Yea, like the Fa­ther and the Son, Let all the saints, in un­ion join.
