Verse 1
Awake, and sing the song Of Moses and the Lamb;
Tune every heart and every tongue To praise the Savior's name.
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 those whose sins He bore.
Sing how He intercedes above For those whose sins He bore.

Tell, in seraphic strains, What He has done for you;
How He has taken off your chains And formed your hearts anew.
How He has taken off your chains And formed your hearts anew.

His faithfulness proclaim While life to you is given:
Join hands and hearts to praise His name Till we all meet in heav'n.
Join hands and hearts to praise His name Till we all meet in heav'n.
