Wake, O wake! With tidings thrilling

Author: Philipp Nicolai, 1556-1608; F. C. Burkitt, 1864-1935 Hymnal: Common Praise #39 (2000) Meter: 8.9.8.8.9.8.6.6.4.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Wake, O wake! With tidings thrilling the watchmen all the air are filling, arise, Jerusalem, arise! Midnight strikes! No more delaying, 'The hour has come!' we hear them saying, 'where are ye all, ye virgins wise? The Bridegroom comes in sight, raise high your torches bright!' Alleluia! The wedding song swells loud and strong: go forth and join the festal throng. 2 Zion hears the watchmen shouting, her heart leaps up with joy undoubting, she stands and waits with eager eyes; see her Friend from heaven descending, adorned with truth and grace unending! Her light burns clear, her star doth rise. Now come, thou precious Crown, Lord Jesus, God's own Son! Alleluia! Let us prepare to follow there, where in thy supper we may share. 3 Every soul in thee rejoices; from earth and from angelic voices be glory given to thee alone! Now the gates of pearl receive us, thy presence never more shall leave us, we stand with angels round thy throne. Earth cannot give below the bliss thou dost bestow. Alleluia! Grant us to raise, to length of days, the triumph-chorus of thy praise.

Wake, Awake for Night Is Flying

Author: Catherine Winkworth, 1827-1878; Philipp Nicolai, 1556-1608 Hymnal: Hymns for Youth #60 (1966) Meter: 8.9.8.8.9.8.6.6.4.4.4.8 First Line: Wake, awake, for night is flying 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; Alleluia! Bear through the night your well-trimmed light, Speed forth to join the marriage rite. 2. Zion hears the watchmen singing, And all her heart with joy is springing; She wakes, she rises from her gloom. Forth her bridegroom comes, all-glorious, The strong in grace, in truth victorious; Her star is risen, her light is come. All hail, thou precious One, Lord Jesus, God's dear Son! Alleluia! The joyful call we answer all, And follow to the nuptial hall. 3. Lamb of God, the heavens adore thee, And men and angels sing before thee With harp and cymbal's clearest tone. By the pearly gates in wonder We stand, and swell the voice of thunder In bursts of choral melody. To mortal eyes and ears What glory now appears! Alleluia! We raise the song, we swell the throng, To praise thee ages all along. Languages: English Tune Title: WACHET AUF
