Awake our hearts, awake our songs,
let each lift up his voice;
To God eternal praise belongs,
In God will we rejoice.
‘Tis he accounts the guilty just,
He makes salvation ours,
And on the children of the dust
His richest blessings pours.
Since sin, our vile and ragged dress,
Would but disgrace his throne,
He clothes us in the righteousness
Of His beloved Son.
That robe with sunlike glories bright,
Shines ever pure and fair;
Exceeding far the glittering white,
Which sinless angels wear.
And when his children reach their home
All by his grace restored,
And filled with love divine, become
As holy as their Lord.
