Asante Twi Lyrics
Verse 1
Awake, my soul! stretch every nerve, And press with vigor on; A heavenly race demands thy zeal, And an immortal crown.
Verse 2
'Tis God's all animating voice That calls thee from on high; 'Tis He whose hand presents the prize To thine aspiring eye.
Verse 3
A cloud of witness around Hold thee in full survey; Forget the steps already trod, And onward urge thy way.
Verse 4
Blest Savior, introduced by Thee, Our race have we begun; And, crowned with victory, at Thy feet We'll lay our trophies down.
English Lyrics
Verse 1
O worship the lord in the beauty of holiness, Bow down before Him, His glory proclaim; With gold of obedience, and incense of lowliness, Kneel and adore Him; the Lord is His name.
Verse 2
Low at His feet lay Thy burden of carefulness; High on His heart He will beart it for thee, Comfort thy sorrows and answer thy Prayerfulness, Guiding thy steps as may best for thee be.
Verse 3
Fear not to enter His courts in the slenderness Of the poor wealth thou wouldst reckon as thine. Truth in it's beauty and love in it's tenderness, These are the offerings to lay on his shrine.
Verse 4
These, though we bring them in trembling and fearfulness, He will accept for the name, and is dear; Mornings of joy give for eveneings of tearfulness, Trust four trembling, and Hope for our fear.
