Awake, My Soul, Stretch Every Nerve
Author: Philip Doddridge Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,066 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Awake, my soul, stretch ev'ry nerve,
and press with vigor on;
a heav'nly race demands thy zeal,
and an immortal crown.
2 A cloud of witnesses around
hold thee in full survey;
forget the steps already trod
and onward urge your way.
3 'Tis God's all-animating voice
that calls thee from on high;
'tis his own hand presents the prize
to thine aspiring eye;
4 that prize, with peerless glories bright
which shall new lustre boast,
when victors' wreaths and monarch's gems
shall blend in common dust.
5 Blest Saviour, introduced by thee
have I my race begun,
and crowned with vict'ry, at thy feet
I'll lay my honors down.

O Jesus, strong and pure and true
Author: William Walsham How, 1823-1897 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, strong and pure and true,
before Your feet we bow;
the grace of earlier years renew,
and lead us onward now.
2 The joyous life that year by year
within these walls is stored,
the golden hope, the gladsome cheer,
we bring to You, O Lord.
3 Our faith endow with keener powers,
with warmer glow our love,
and draw these faltering hearts of ours
from earth to heaven above.
4 In paths our bravest ones have trod
O make us strong to go,
that we may give our lives to God
in serving all below.
5 Scorn we the selfish aim or choice,
and love's high precept keep:
'Rejoice with those that do rejoice
and weep with them that weep.'
6 So hence shall flow fresh strength and grace,
as from a full-fed spring,
to make the world a better place,
and life a worthier thing. Used With Tune: ST FULBERT
