[blocks in formation]

WAKE, my soul, and grateful sing

Th' ascended SAVIOUR's love:

Sing how he lives to carry on

His people's cause above.

With cries and tears He offer'd up
His humble suit below;
But with authority He asks,
Enthron'd in glory now.

3 For all that come to GoD by Him,
Salvation He demands;

Points to their names upon His breast,
And spreads His wounded hands.

4 Eternal life, at His request,
To ev'ry saint is giv❜n:
Safety on earth, and after death,
The plenitude of heav'n.

5 Founded on right, Thy prayer avails,
The FATHER smiles on Thee;

And now Thou in Thy kingdom art,
O LORD, remember me.

6 Let the sweet incense of Thy prayer
In my behalf ascend !

And as its virtue, so my praise
Shall never, never, end.

The world's foundations first were laid; Come visit ev'ry waiting mind,

Come, pour Thy joys on human-kind;
From sin and sorrow set us free
And make us temples meet for Thee.

Come and Thy sacred unction bring
To sanctify us, while we sing.

Now shed Thy influence from above;
Unfailing comfort, heav'nly Guide,,
Now o'er Thy favor'd Church preside;
And still-from age to age convey

Who for lost man's redemption died;
And equal adoration be

NOME, HOLY SPIRIT; come;
Let Thy bright beams arise

Dispel the sorrow from our mind,
The darkness from our eyes.

Cheer our desponding hearts,
With visitations sweet;
Give us to lie with humble hope,
At our REDEEMER's feet.
