Awake our souls away our fears | C |
Let every trembling thought begone | D |
Awake and run the heav'nly race | A |
And put a cheerful courage on | D |

True 'tis a strait and thorny road | E |
And mortal spirits tire and faint | F |
But they forget the mighty God | G |
That feeds the strength of every saint | F |
- | |
Thee mighty God whose matchless power | H |
Is ever new and ever young | I |
And firm endures while endless years | C |
Their everlasting circles run | D |
- | |
From thee the overflowing spring | J |
Our souls shall drink a fresh supply | K |
While such as trust their native strength | L |
Shall melt away and droop and die | K |
- | |
Swift as an eagle cuts the air | M |
We'll mount aloft to thine abode | E |
On wings of love our souls shall fly | K |
Nor tire amidst the heav'nly road | E |
