<p>Wake the song of joy and gladness;<br>
|
|
Hither bring your noblest lays;<br>
|
|
Banish every thought of sadness,<br>
|
|
Pouring forth your highest praise.<br>
|
|
Sing to him Whose care has brought us<br>
|
|
Once again with friends to meet,<br>
|
|
And Whose loving voice has taught us,<br>
|
|
Of the way to Jesus’ feet.</p>

<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>

|
<p class="refrain">Wake the song, wake the song,<br>
|
|
The song of joy and gladness,<br>
|
|
Wake the song, wake the song,<br>
|
|
The song of Jubilee.</p>
|
|
<p>Joyfully with songs and banners,<br>
|
|
We will greet the festal day;<br>
|
|
Shout aloud our glad hosannas,<br>
|
|
And our grateful homage pay.<br>
|
|
We will chant our Savior’s glory<br>
|
|
While our thoughts we raise above,<br>
|
|
Telling still “<a href = "./hymns/hymns_html/htm_i_l_ilttts.html">the old old story</a>,”<br>
|
|
Precious theme—redeeming love!</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>Thanks to Thee, O holy Father,<br>
|
|
For the mercies of the year;<br>
|
|
May each heart, as here we gather,<br>
|
|
Swell with gratitude sincere.<br>
|
|
Thanks to Thee, O loving Savior,<br>
|
|
For redemption through Thy blood.<br>
|
|
Breathe upon us, Holy Spirit,<br>
|
|
Sweetly draw us near to God.</p>
