Awake, our souls! away, our fears!

Author: Watts Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #655 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Awake, our souls! away, our fears! Let every trembling thought be done; Awake, and run the heavenly race, And put a cheerful courage on. 2 True, 'tis a strait and thorny road, And mortal spirits tire and faint; But they forget the mighty God, Who feeds the strength of every saint. 3 The mighty god, whose matchless power Is ever new, and ever young, And firm endures while endless years Their everlasting circles run. 4 From thee, the overflowing spring, Our souls shall drink a full supply; While such as trust their native strength, Shall melt away, and droop, and die. 5 Swift as an eagle cuts the air, We'll mount aloft to thine abode; On wings of love our souls shall fly, Nor tire amid the heavenly road.
