Lyrics
(Folk carol)
1. Awake, my soul, to joyful lays, Halle, hallelujah,
And sing the great Redeemer’s praise, Halle, hallelujah,
And justly claims a song from thee, Halle, hallelujah,
His lovingkindness, oh how free, Halle, hallelujah!
2. Awake, arise and hail the morn, Halle, hallelujah,
For unto us a Savior’s born, Halle, hallelujah.
See how the angels wing their way, Halle, hallelujah.
To usher in the glorious day, Halle, hallelujah!
3. Glory to God that reigns above, Halle, hallelujah.
We join to sing our Maker’s love, Halle, hallelujah.
Let peace and love on earth abound, Halle, hallelujah.
While time revolves and years roll round, Halle, hallelujah!
