38   Arise My Soul Arise




[1]
Arise my soul arise!
Stretch forth to things eternal
And hasten to the feet of your Redeemer God.
Though hid from mortal eyes
He dwells in light supernal;
Yet worship Him in humbleness and call Him Lord.
His banquet of love
Awaits you above;
Yet here He grants a foretaste of the feast to come!
Rejoice my soul rejoice
To heav n lift up your voice:
Alleluia alleluia alleluia!

[2]
Now hear the harps of heav n!
Oh hear the song victorious
The never-ending anthem sounding through the sky!
To mortals is not giv n
To join in strains so glorious;
Yet here on earth we too can sing our praises high!
He bought with His blood
The ransomed of God;
To Him be ever lasting pow r and victory.
And let the great amen
Resound through heav n again.
Alleluia alleluia alleluia!
