The Church Hymn Book:
With Tunes, for the Worship of God
1 Now for a tune jf loftypraise
To great Jehovah's cgual Son!
Awake, my voice! in heavenly lays,
Tell the loud wonders he hath done.
2 Sing - how he left the worlds of light,
And the bright robes he wore above, -
How swift and joyful was his flight,
On wings of everlasting love.
3 Deep in the shades of gloomy death,
Th'almighty Captive pris'nea lay:
Th'almighty Captive left the earth,
And rose to everlasting day.
4 Amongst a thousand harps and sons,
Jesus, the God, exalted reigns;
His sacred name fills all teir tongues,
Andechoes through the heavenly plains.
Isaac Watts, 1707
