Vaagn op, du, som sover, staa op fra de Døde

Author: Landstad Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Ordinary Prayer Day Lyrics: 1 Vaagn op, du, som sover, staa op fra de Døde, Krist lyser for dig! Op, fer du ei Dagen, dens Straaler at gløde Af Miskundhed rig! Nu sov ikke længer, Snært over dig hænger En fortere Nat, Om snart du ei favner din Skat. 2 I Jorderigs Dale, hvor Taagerne hænge, Og Kinden er vaad, Der lyder saa mange de sørgende Strenge Af Suk og af Graad; Af, hør disse Toner Om Syndens Forsoner, Om Seier og Fred! Vor Herre er kommen herned! 3 I Jorderigs Dale, hvor Tornerne saare, Er tungsomt at gaa, Der længes saa mange med gr…dende Taare, Til Freden at faa. Nu stanse du Taaren, Gud Glæde med Vaaren I Kristus vi har, Staa op, du som sover, vær snar! 4 Oplad dine Øine, og løft dem til Himlen, Se nu er det Dag! O, glæd dig som Barnet, og bland dig i Vrimlen, Og Herren modtag! Hvor Synderne tynge, I Dagningen synge, Som Fuglen i Skov, De ventende Sjæle Guds Lov. 5 Ja Gud være lovet for Dagen, som skinner Fra Himmelen ned! Nu Sandheden, Veien og Livet jeg finder, Og vandrer med Fred. Lys for os, o Kriste! Lad aldrig os miste Dit lebende Spor, Din Naades det lysende Ord!
