181 Easter

 

1. Awake and sing the song

of Moses and the Lamb;

wake every heart and every tongue

to praise the Savior's name.

 

2. Sing of his dying love,

his resurrection power;

sing how he intercedes above

for those whose sins he bore.

 

3. You pilgrims on the road

to Zion's city, sing,

rejoicing in thhe Lamb of God,

to Christ the eternal King.

 

 

 

 

4. Soon shall each raptured tongue

his endless praise proclaim,

and sing in sweeter notes the song

of Moses and the Lamb.
