Awake, awake, my heart and tongue,
Begin a new melodious song;
To him whose condescending love
Bids all my guilt and fears remove.
To him who on the fatal tree,
Poured out his blood, his life for me;
In lofty strains my voice I’ll raise,
And in his service spend my days.
The listening multitudes shall know,
How he redeemed my soul from woe;
And how, reposing on his breast,
I lost my cares, and sunk to rest.
To him I owe my sins forgiven,
He ever pleads my cause in heaven;
I’ll build an altar to his name,
And his unbounded love proclaim.
