Awake, and sing by Robert Morrison Stults — Lyrics
Awake, and sing the song
Of Moses and the Lamb;
Tune every heart and every tongue,
To praise the Savior’s name.
Sing of His dying love;
Sing of His rising power;
Sing how He intercedes above
For all whose sins He bore.
Sing on your heav'nly way!
Ye ransomed sinners, sing!
Sing on rejoicing ev'ry day
In Christ the Eternal King!

The lyrics celebrate the redemptive power of Christ's sacrifice and resurrection, urging believers to sing His praises throughout their lives, anticipating the eternal song of glory in heaven. The music aims to match the text's exultant message, encouraging a full and vibrant choral sound. It is a powerful call to vocal praise, reflecting on Christ's intercession and the ultimate homecoming of the redeemed.
