{{Vs|1}} Lord, Thy ransomed Church is waking | |||
Out of slumber far and near, | |||
Knowing that the morn is breaking | |||
When the Bridegroom will appear; | |||
Waking up to claim the treasure | |||
With Thy precious life-blood bought, | |||
And to trust in fuller measure | |||
All Thy wondrous death hath wrought. | |||
{{Vs|2}} Praise to Thee for this glad shower, | |||
Precious drops of latter rain; | |||
Praise, that by Thy Spirit’s power | |||
Thou hast quickened us again; | |||
That Thy Gospel’s priceless treasure | |||
Now is borne from land to land, | |||
And that all the Father’s pleasure | |||
Prospers in Thy piercèd hand. | |||
{{mdl}} | |||
{{Vs|3}} Praise to Thee for saved ones yearning | |||
O’er the lost and wandering throng; | |||
Praise for voices daily learning | |||
To upraise the glad new song; | |||
Praise to Thee for sick ones hasting | |||
Now to touch Thy garment’s hem; | |||
Praise for souls believing—tasting | |||
All Thy love has won for them. | |||
{{Vs|4}} Set on fire our heart’s devotion | |||
With the love of Thy dear name; | |||
Till o’er every land and ocean | |||
Lips and lives Thy cross proclaim. | |||
Fix our eyes on Thy returning, | |||
Keeping watch till Thou shalt come, | |||
Loins well girt, lamps brightly burning, | |||
Then, Lord, take Thy servants home. | |||
