Hymnal: A Book of Hymns for Public and Private Devotion (15th ed.) #515 (1866) Meter: 6.6.8.6 First Line: Father, this slumber shake Lyrics:
Father, this slumber shake
From off my heavy soul!
Say to me now,—awake! awake!
And I will make thee whole!
Touch with Thy strengthening hand;
Arouse me in this hour;
And make me fully understand
The thunder of Thy power.
Give me on Thee to call;
Always to watch and pray,
Lest I into temptation fall,
And cast my shield away.
For each assault prepared
And watchful may I be,
Forever standing on my guard,
And looking unto Thee.
