Rise, O my soul, to higher joys awaking,
Rise and obey thy blessed Master's will;
Now from the world and all its pleasures breaking,
Live unto him, and be thou faithful still.
Live unto him whose gentle hand will guide thee
Safe through the ills that mark this fleeting shore;
Live unto him who walketh still beside thee,
Live unto him who liveth evermore.
Rise, O my soul, and overcome temptation,
Stand like the brave amid the battle strife;
Strong in the might and strength of my salvation,
Hold fast the hope of everlasting life.
Live unto him whose gentle hand will guide thee
Safe through the ills that mark this fleeting shore;
Live unto him who walketh still beside thee,
Live unto him who liveth evermore.
Rise, O my soul, above thy care and sadness,
Rise and rejoice, thy song of rapture swell;
Praise him who turns thy sorrow into gladness,
Trust in the Lord, who doeth all things well.
Live unto him whose gentle hand will guide thee
Safe through the ills that mark this fleeting shore;
Live unto him who walketh still beside thee,
Live unto him who liveth evermore.
Rise, O my soul, the way grows bright before thee,
Soon wilt thou reach the sunny heights above;
Haste, haste thee on to glory, unto glory,
Till thou art lost in thy Redeemer's praise.
Live unto him whose gentle hand will guide thee
Safe through the ills that mark this fleeting shore;
Live unto him who walketh still beside thee,
Live unto him who liveth evermore.
