Hymn 48

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 403 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 40:28-31 First Line: Awake, our souls; away, our fears Lyrics: Awake, our souls; away, our fears, Let every trembling thought begone; Awake, and run the heav'nly race, And put a cheerful courage on. True, 'tis a strait and thorny road, And mortal spirits tire and faint; But they forget the mighty God, That feeds the strength of every saint. Thee, mighty God! whose matchless power Is ever new and ever young, And firm endures, while endless years Their everlasting circles run. From thee, the overflowing spring, Our souls shall drink a fresh supply, While such as trust their native strength Shall melt away, and droop, and die. Swift as an eagle cuts the air, We'll mount aloft to thine abode On wings of love our souls shall fly, Nor tire amidst the heav'nly road.

Hymn 32

And where's our courage fled? Have restless sin and raging hell Struck all our comforts dead? Have we forgot th' almighty name That formed the earth and sea? And can an all-creating arm Grow weary or decay? Treasures of everlasting might In our Jehovah dwell; He gives the conquest to the weak And treads their foes to hell. Mere mortal power shall fade and die, And youthful vigor cease: But we that wait upon the Lord Shall feel our strength increase. The saints shall mount on eagles' wings, And taste the promised bliss, Till their unwearied feet arrive Where perfect pleasure is.

And can an all-creating arm grow weary or decay? 3 Supreme in wisdom as in pow'r the Rock of Ages stands, though him you cannot see, nor trace the working of his hands. 4 He gives the conquest to the weak, supports the fainting heart; and courage in the evil hour his heav'nly aids impart. 5 Mere human pow'r shall fast decay, and youthful vigor cease; but they who wait upon the Lord in strength shall still increase. 6 They with unwearied feet shall tread the path of life divine; with growing ardor onward move, with growing brightness shine. 7 On eagles' wings they mount, they soar - their wings are faith and love - till, past the cloudy regions here, they rise to heav'n above.
