Awake, My Soul, Stretch Every Nerve
1. Awake, my soul, stretch every nerve, and press with vigor on;
A heavenly race demands thy zeal, and an immortal crown,
And an immortal crown.
A heavenly race demands thy zeal, and an immortal crown,
And an immortal crown.
2. A cloud of witnesses around hold thee in full survey;
Forget the steps already trod, and onward urge your way,
And onward urge your way.
Forget the steps already trod, and onward urge your way,
And onward urge your way.
3. 'Tis God's all-animating voice that calls thee from on high;
'Tis his own hand presents the prize to thine aspiring eye,
To thine aspiring eye.
'Tis his own hand presents the prize to thine aspiring eye,
To thine aspiring eye.
4. Then wake, my soul, stretch every nerve, and press with vigor on;
A heavenly race demands thy zeal, and an immortal crown,
And an immortal crown.
A heavenly race demands thy zeal, and an immortal crown,
And an immortal crown.
