129. Awake Each Soul! Awake Each Tongue

C.M.
by T. Kelly
1
Awake each soul! awake each tongue!
 
The subject is divine;
 
The Savior’s love demands our song;
 
Let all His people join.
2
This Savior is the mighty God,
 
The God of heaven above;
 
Revealed in flesh, He shed His blood,
 
Blest proof of endless love.
“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” (Isaiah 9:6)
3
Jesus, Thy love exceeds our thought;
 
But this at least we see,
 
The soul that knows Thy love is taught
 
To value naught but Thee.
4
And though Thy love be faintly seen,
 
What’s seen demands our praise;
 
Without it, Lord, we still had been
 
Ensnared in Satan’s ways.
