Awake, and shout Hosanna

Author: Grace J. Frances Hymnal: JL1884 #123 (1884) Lyrics: 1 Awake, and shout Hosanna, With all our ransomed pow’rs; A full, complete salvation Thro' Christ the Lord is ours; He saves us to the utmost, He saves us evermore; But they who would His grace receive, But they who would His grace receive, Must find it at the door. 2 Lift up, lift up our voices, And in the Saviour’s name, His full and free salvation, With trumpet tongue proclaim; The precious blood He offered, Can all the world restore; But whoso will be free from sin, But whoso will be free from sin, Must come to Christ the door. 3 Come back, come back, ye lost ones, Why will you farther go? You’re on the road to ruin, And near the brink of woe; Come back to Him who loved you, Be slaves to sin no more; The glorious light of gospel grace, The glorious light of gospel grace, Is streaming from the door.
