Awake, My Soul! To Sound His Praise

lyricist: Joel Barlow, 1785
Composer: Alexander Reinagle, 1836

Awake

my soul! to sound His praise

Awake my harp to sing;

Join

all my pow’rs the song to raise

And morn­ing in­cense bring.

Among the peo­ple of his care

And thro’ the na­tions round

Glad songs of praise will I pre­pare

And there his name re­sound.

Be Thou ex­alt­ed

O my God!

Above the star­ry train;

Diffuse Thy heav’n­ly grace abroad

And teach the world Thy reign.

So shall Thy chos­en sons re­joice

And throng Thy courts above;

While sin­ners hear Thy par­don­ing voice

And taste re­deem­ing love.
