Sing, My Soul!

Sing

my soul! pro­claim the ho­ly rap­ture

Bursting now from ev­ery chord of thine;

Angel choirs

their high­est num­bers wak­ing

Never told the bliss of a joy like mine.

Saved and re­deemed

thro’ sim­ple faith in Je­sus!

Now I am His

and He ab­ides in me;

Saved and re­deemed! Oh

shout aloud the sto­ry;

Hid with Him for­ev­er­more my life shall be.

Sing

my soul! the rock where­on thou stand­est

Firm

un­moved

thy an­chored hope shall keep;

He

thy Lord

still walk­ing on the bil­low

Calms the trou­bled wave like a child to sleep.

Hark

my soul! from dist­ant realms eter­nal

Borne in light on faith’s ce­les­ti­al wing

Love’s glad songs to thee are gent­ly waft­ed

Songs that by and by thou wilt learn to sing.

Look

my soul! the mor­row’s dawn is break­ing;

Hail

oh

hail

thy heav’n on earth be­gun!

He

the Lord

such heights of joy re­veal­ing

Holds the bless­èd crown that will soon be won.
