Awake, Believing Souls, Awake

Awake

be­liev­ing souls

awake

Your so­lemn vows re­new

To Him who died up­on the cross

And pleads in Heav’n for you.

Awake

my dull in­act­ive soul

Nor more in­dulge de­lay;

Let acts of pi­ety and love

Mark each re­volv­ing day.

Each day of this new year

would I

Devote

oh God to Thee;

Each day of this new year

do Thou

Impart new strength to me.
