Wake, Awake, For Night Is Flying

Author: Philip Nicolai Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #244 (1927) Meter: 8.9.8.9.8.9.8.6.6.4.4.4.8 Lyrics: 1 Wake, awake, for night is flying: The watchmen on the heights are crying, Awake, Jerusalem arise! Midnight's solemn hour is tolling, His chariot wheels are nearer rolling; He comes, prepare, ye virgins wise. Rise up; with willing feet Go forth, the Bridegroom meet; Hallelujah! Bear thro' the night your well trimm'd light, Speed forth to join the marriage rite. 2 Zion hears the watchmen singing, Her heart with deep delight is springing, At once she wakes, she hastes away: Forth her Bridegroom hastens glorious, In grace arrayed, by truth victorious; Her grief is joy, her night is day: All hail, incarnate Lord, Our crown, and our reward! Hallelujah! We haste along, in pomp of song, And gladsome join the marriage throng. 3 Hear Thy praise, O Lord, ascending From tongues of men and angels, blending With harp and lute and psaltery. By Thy pearly gates in wonder We stand, and swell the voice of thunder, In bursts of choral melody: No vision ever brought, No ear hath ever caught, Such bliss and joy: We raise the song, we swell the throng, To praise Thee ages all along.
