Wake, Awake, for Night Is Flying -HOTD for 11/12/23- LSB 516

1. "Wake, awake, for night is flying." The watchmen on the heights are crying; "Awake, Jerusalem, arise!" Midnight hears the welcome voices and at the thrilling cry rejoices: "Oh, where are ye, ye virgins wise? The Bridegroom comes, awake! Your lamps with gladness take! Alleluia! With bridal care Yourselves prepare to meet the Bridegroom who is near." 2. Zion hears the watchmen singing, and all her heart with joy is springing; she wakes, she rises from her gloom. For her Lord comes down all glorious, the strong in grace, in truth victorious; Her star is risen, her light is come. Now come, Thou blessed One. Lord Jesus, God's own Son, Hail! Hosanna! We enter all the wedding hall to eat the Supper at Thy call. 3. Now let all the heavens adore Thee, let saints and angels sing before Thee with harp and cymbals clearest tone. Of one pearl each shining portal, where, joining with the choir immortal, we gather round Thy radiant throne. No eye has seen the light, no ear has heard the might of Thy glory; therefore will we Eternally sing hymns of praise and joy to Thee! Ascension Lutheran Church is a safe haven where all people are wanted, welcomed, and accepted in Christ.
