56. Awake, awake, O heart of mine

1 AWAKE, awake, O heart of mine!
Sing praise to God above;
Take up the song of endless years,
And sing redeeming love!
Redeemed by Him who bore my sins,
When on the cross He died;
Redeemed and purchased with His blood,
Redeemed and sanctified.

Refrain:
Awake, awake … O heart of mine! …
Sing praise, sing praise … to God above …
Take up the song … of endless years …
And sing … redeeming love!

2 Redeemed by Him, my Lord and King,
Who saves me day by day;
My life and all its ransomed powers
Could ne’er His love repay.
And yet His mercy condescends
My humble gift to own;
And through the riches of His grace
brings me near His throne.

3 Oh, love unchanging, love sublime!
Not all the hosts above
Can reach the height or sound the depth
Of God's eternal love.
This wondrous love enfolds the world,
It fills the realms above;
’Tis boundless as eternity;
Oh, praise the God of love.
