103. Awake! Awake!

Awake, awake, put on thy strength, O Zion,
Put on thy strength O Zion, O Zion,
Thy beautiful garments, O Jerusalem!
Arise, O captive daughter, and shake from thee the dust;
In God’s own name shall be thy trust;
Awake, awake, put on thy strength, thy beauty, O Jerusalem.

Thy watchman shall lift up the voice,
Together shall they sing;
The desert place shall rejoice
In thine exalted King.
Break forth, break forth in songs of praise,
Thy God doth comfort thee;
He leads thee in triumphant ways,
His people now are free.

Glory, glory, be to the Father, and glory to the Son
And to the Holy Ghost, forever, evermore. Amen.
