Watch on YouTube: Awake, My Soul in Christ

See text below.

Why should I longer yield to sin,

Or to temptation's grievous snare?

Why should the evil one afflict my soul's desire,

My soul's desire to bear?

Wilt Thou deliver me, O Lord,

And make my path be straight?

Encircle me with heav'nly pow'r

And glory at Thy gate.

Awake, awake my soul in Christ!

No longer droop in mortal sin.

Rejoice, and sing my psalm to Thee;

Like Nephi, I shall win.

I know in whom I trust;

For me my Savior came.

My God is my support, my all;

With love I'll praise His name.

I will not put my faith in flesh;

I know of Christ's sure victory.

I know the Rock of Righteousness

through mercy saves,

through mercy sets me free.

I lift my voice with laud to heav'n;

My peace, from Thee restored.

Thy Spirit's as a flame of fire;

Thou art my King, my Lord.
