Awake, my heart! my soul, arise!

Author: Anon. Hymnal: SDAH1886 #214 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Awake, my heart! my soul, arise! This is the day believers prize; Improve this Sabbath, then, with care; Another may not be thy share. 2 O, solemn thought! Lord, give me power, Wisely to fill up every hour; O for the wings of faith and love To bear my longing heart above! 3 Jesus, assist, nor let me fail To worship thee within the vail, To glorify thy matchless grace, To see the beauties of thy face. 4 Be with me in thy house to-day, And tune my heart to praise and pray; Command thy word to fall like dew, Refreshing, quickening all anew. 5 Call forth my thoughts, and let them rove O'er the green pastures of thy love; O let not sin prevent my rest, Nor keep me from my Saviour's breast.

Awake, my soul, in joyful lays

Author: Samuel Medley Hymnal: SDAH1886 #110 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Awake, my soul, in joyful lays, And sing thy great Redeemer's praise; He justly claims a song from me, His loving kindness, O, how free! 2 He saw me ruined in the fall, Yet loved me, notwithstanding all; He saved me from my lost estate: His loving-kindness, O, how great! 3 Though numerous hosts of mighty foes, Though earth and hell my way oppose, He safely leads my soul along: His loving-kindness, O, how strong! 4 When trouble, like a gloomy cloud, Has gathered thick and thundered loud, He near my soul has always stood: His loving-kindness, O, how good! 5 And when earth's rightful King shall come To take his ransomed people home, I'll sing upon that blissful shore His loving-kindness evermore.

Awake, my soul! lift up thine eyes

Author: Anna L. Barbauld Hymnal: SDAH1886 #594 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Awake, my soul! lift up thine eyes; See where thy foes against thee rise, In long array, a numerous host; Awake, my soul! or thou art lost. 2 See where rebellious passions rage, And fierce desires and lusts engage; The meanest foe of all the train Has thousands and ten thousands slain. 3 Thou treadest on enchanted ground; Perils and snares beset thee round; Beware of all, guard every part But most the traitor in thy heart. 4 The terror and the charm repel, The powers of earth, and powers of hell; The Man of Calvary triumphed here; Why should his faithful followers fear? 5 Come then, my soul! now learn to wield The weight of thine immortal shield; Put on the armor, from above, Of heavenly truth and heavenly love.

Author: Philip Doddridge Hymnal: SDAH1886 #794 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Awake, ye saints, and raise your eyes, And raise your voices high; Awake, and praise that sovereign love That shows salvation nigh; Awake, and praise that sovereign love That shows salvation nigh. 2 Swift on the wings of time it flies; Each moment brings it near; Then welcome each declining day, Welcome each closing year. 3 Not many years their round shall run, Not many mornings rise, Ere all its glories stand revealed To our admiring eyes. 4 Ye wheels of nature, speed your course! Ye mortal powers, decay! Haste! till the last glad morning rise That brings eternal day. Topics: Waiting for Christ Closing Work Tune Title: ZERAH

Awaked from sin's delusive sleep

Author: Thomas Moore Hymnal: SDAH1886 #433 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Awaked from sin's delusive sleep, My heavy guilt I feel, and weep; Beneath a weight of woes oppressed, I come to thee, my Lord, for rest. 2 Now, from thy throne of grace above, Look down upon my soul in love; That smile shall sweeten all my pain, And make my soul rejoice again. 3 By thy divine, transforming power, My ruined nature now restore; And let my life and temper shine, In blest resemblance, Lord, to thine.

Away from his home and the friends of his youth

Hymnal: SDAH1886 #1412 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Away from his home and the friends of his youth, He hastened, the herald of mercy and truth; For the love of his Lord, and to seek for the lost; Soon, alas! was his fall; but he died at his post. Soon, alas! was his fall; but he died at his post. 2 The stranger's eye wept, that in life's brightest bloom, One gifted so highly should sink to the tomb: For in ardor he led in the van of the host, And he fell like a soldier, he died at his post. 3 He wept not, himself, that his warfare was done: The battle was fought, and the victory won; But he whispered of those whom his heart loved the most, "Tell my brethren for me, that I died at my post." 4 He asked not a stone to be sculptured with verse; He asked not that fame should his merits rehearse; But he asked as a boon, this he coveted most That his brethren might know that he died at his post. 5 How can we the words of our brother forget? Oh, no! they are fresh in our memory yet: And example so sacred shall never be lost, We will fall in the work we will die at our post.

Away, my unbelieving fear!

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: SDAH1886 #668 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Away, my unbelieving fear! Fear shall in me no more have place: My Saviour doth not yet appear, He hides the brightness of his face; But shall I therefore let him go, And basely to the tempter yield? No, in the strength of Jesus, no; I never will give up my shield. 2 Although the vine its fruit deny, Although the olive yield no oil, The withering fig-trees droop and die, The fields elude the tiller's toil, The empty stall no herd afford, And perish all the bleating race; Yet I will triumph in the Lord, The God of my salvation praise. 3 Barren although my soul remain, And not one bud of grace appear, No fruit of all my toil and pain, But sin and only sin is here; Although my gifts and comforts lost, My blooming hopes cut off I see, Yet will I in my Saviour trust, And glory that he died for me.

Away with our sorrow and fear!

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: SDAH1886 #841 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Away with our sorrow and fear! We soon shall recover our home; The city of saints shall appear, The day of eternity come. From earth we shall quickly remove, And mount to our promised abode, The house of our Father above, The palace of angels and God. 2 By faith we already behold That lovely Jerusalem here; Her walls are of jasper and gold, As crystal her buildings are clear. Immovably founded in grace, She stands as she ever has stood; And soon, at the end of our race, We'll rest in that city of God. Topics: Waiting for Christ Closing Work Tune Title: CONTRAST
