Awake! Awake! Glad Voices Make

Awake! Awake! Glad voic­es make

Sing praise to Christ the Lord

The liv­ing Word in earth and Heav’n

Eternally ad­ored!

For thank­ful songs from hearts and tongues

To Christ our king are giv’n

From hearts of men set free again

And hap­py saints in Heav’n.

’Tis East­er morn

new faith is born

The day of days the best.

Sing praise to God! Sing out abroad

With joy and hope pos­sessed!

For now the Prince of Peace hath fought

And tri­umphed o’er the grave

With ho­ly arm and strong right hand

Omnipotent to save.

No sha­dows now

our spir­its bow

Our souls are raised on high;

The Son of Man

in God’s own plan

Has come to earth to die.

No doubts or fear could hold Him here

Detained by mor­tal breath.

For now He lives and free­ly gives

Redemption ov­er death!
