Awake, Awake! O Heart of Mine!

Verse 1

Awake, awake, O heart of mine, Sing praise to God above; Take up the song of endless years, And shout redeeming love; Redeemed by him who bore my sins, When on the cross he died; Redeemed and purchased with his blood, Redeemed and sanctified.

Chorus

Awake, awake, O heart of mine, Sing praise, sing praise to God above; Take up the song of endless years And shout redeeming love.

Verse 2

Redeemed by him, my Lord and King, Who saves me day by day; My life and all its ransomed powers Could ne’er His love repay; And yet his mercy condescends My humble gift to own, And thro' the riches of his grace, He brings me near his throne.

Verse 3

O love, unchanging and sublime! Not all the hosts above Can reach the height or sound the depth Of God’s eternal love; This wondrous love enfolds the world, It fills the realms above; ’Tis boundless as eternity, 'Tis God, and God is love.
