133a. Now to the Lord a noble song!

1 Now to the Lord a noble song!
Awake, my soul, awake, my tongue!
Hosanna to th’eternal Name!
And all his boundless love proclaim.

2 See where it shines in Jesus’ face,
The brightest image of his grace;
God, in the person of his Son,
Has all his mightiest works outdone.

3 Grace!--‘tis a sweet, a charming theme!
My thoughts rejoice at Jesus’ name;
Ye angels, dwell upon the sound;
Ye heavens, reflect it to the ground.

4 Oh, may I reach the happy place
Where he unveils his lovely face,
Where all his beauties you behold,
And sing his name to harps of gold.
