A THIRD HYMN FOR THE KIRK.
1 UP, sluggard soul! awake and raise,
2 To thy blest Lord a song of praise,
3 Who lifts thee from the gloomy grave,
4 When low on earth thou liest, —
5 To Him who lived and died to save,
6 Hosanna in the highest!
7 To Him, thy friend of friends, whose love
8 Invites thee to a home above,
9 When thou, the world's poor outcast slave
10 In grief and anguish criest, —
11 To Him who lived and died to save,
12 Hosanna in the highest!
13 His love a living stream hath found
14 For pilgrims faint, on barren ground,
15 Their parched and languid souls to lave,
16 When earthly streams are driest, —
17 To him who lived and died to save,
18 Hosanna in the highest!
