- 1Awake, and sing the song
- Of Moses and the Lamb!
- Wake ev'ry heart and ev'ry tongue
- To praise the Saviour's Name.
- 2Sing of His dying love!
- Sing of His rising power!
- Sing how He intercedes above
- For those whose sins He bore!
- 3Sing on your heavenly way!
- Ye ransomed sinners, sing!
- Sing on, rejoicing every day
- In Christ, the Eternal King!
- 4Soon shall ye hear Him say,
- "Ye blessed children, come."
- Soon will He call you hence away,
- And take His wanderers home.
- 5There shall our raptured tongue
- His endless praise proclaim,
- And sweeter voices swell the song
- Of glory to the Lamb.
