Awake, Awake, O Earth!
Author: Lucy Randolph Fleming Meter: 6.6.6.6 D Appears in 12 hymnals Scripture: Acts 1:9 Refrain First Line: He lives again! Lyrics: 1 Awake, awake, O earth!
Thy many voices raise,
And let the echoing hills
Repeat the note of praise.
Let all the isles rejoice,
Let seas take up the strain,
Christ from the dead hath come,
He lives, He lives again.
Refrain:
He lives again!
Our risen Lord, today!
Christ from the dead hath come,
He lives, He lives again.
2 Awake, awake, O earth!
Forget the hour of gloom,
When in thy shudd’ring breast
Thy Maker claimed a tomb.
Put off thy wintry robes
For garb of joyous spring,
Crown thee with lilies fair,
To greet the risen King. [Refrain]
3 Bring treasures of the field,
Bring leaf and blossom sweet,
Thy choicest and thy best,
Before His pierced feet.
While all thy sons are glad,
And tears are put away,
Let youth and age alike
Sing "Christ is ris’n today." [Refrain]
4 Lift up thy gates with praise,
And robes of joy put on,
The Lord of life and death
Hath risen to His throne.
He hath gone up on high,
And giveth gifts to men;
He lives, no more to die,
He lives, He lives again. [Refrain] Topics: Book Four: Occasional Selections, Gospel Songs and Hymns; Jesus Christ Ascension of Used With Tune: AWAKE O EARTH

To Realms of Glory I Behold
Author: Johan Olof Wallin; Claude W. Foss Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8 Appears in 11 hymnals Scripture: Acts 1:1-11 Lyrics: 1 To realms of glory I behold
My risen Lord returning;
While I, a stranger in the earth,
For heav'n am ever yearning.
Far from my heav'nly Father’s home,
’Mid toil and sorrow here I roam.
2 Far from my home--how long, dear Lord,
Before my exile endeth?
But far beyond the realms of sense
My fervent prayer ascendeth:
My prayer, unuttered, but a groan,
Shall rend the skies and reach Thy throne.
3 Then visions of the goodly land
By faith my soul obtaineth;
There I shall dwell for evermore
Where Christ in glory reigneth,
In mansions of that bright abode,
The city of the living God.
4 In that blest city is no night,
Nor any pain or weeping;
There is my treasure, there my heart,
Safe in my Saviour’s keeping;
In heaven, my blessèd Lord, with Thee,
May all my conversation be.
5 In glory He shall come again
To earth as He ascended;
So let me wait and watch and pray,
Until my day is ended.
that day, O Lord, is hid from me,
But daily do I wait for Thee.
6 And blessèd shall that servant be,
O Lord, at Thy returning,
Whose heart is waiting, Lord, for Thee,
Whose lamp is trimmed and burning;
Him wilt Thou take to dwell with Thee,
In joy and peace eternally.
