Arise, all souls, arise!
The watch is past;
A glory breaks above
the cloud at last.
There comes a rushing
mighty wind again!
The breath of God
is still the life of men;
The day ascending
fills the waiting skies,
All souls, arise!
It comes the breath of God
through all the skies!
To live, to breathe with Him,
all souls, arise!
Open the windows
toward the shining East;
Call in the guests,
and spread a wider feast,
The Lord pours forth
as sacramental wine
His breath divine!
It comes a larger life,
a deeper breath;
Arise, all souls, arise,
and conquer death!
Spread forth the feast,
the dew and manna fall
And angels whisper,
“Drink ye of it all;
Drink of His truth,
and feed upon His love,
With saints above!”
Arise, all souls, arise,
to meet your Guest!
His light flames from the East
unto the West.
The Lord of earth and Heaven
is at the door,
He comes to break His bread
to all His poor;
Arise and serve with Him,
His moment flies;
All souls arise!
