Sleepers, wake, for night is flying
Wake, Awake for Night Is Flying
Author: Catherine Winkworth, 1827-1878; Philipp Nicolai, 1556-1608 Hymnal: Hymns for Youth #60 (1966) Meter: 8.9.8.8.9.8.6.6.4.4.4.8 First Line: Wake, awake, for night is flying Lyrics: 1. Wake, awake, for night is flying,
The watchmen on the heights are crying,
Awake, Jerusalem, arise!
Midnight's solemn hour is tolling,
His chariot wheels are nearer rolling;
He comes; prepare, ye virgins wise;
Rise up with willing feet;
Go forth, the bridegroom meet;
Alleluia!
Bear through the night your well-trimmed light,
Speed forth to join the marriage rite.
2. Zion hears the watchmen singing,
And all her heart with joy is springing;
She wakes, she rises from her gloom.
Forth her bridegroom comes, all-glorious,
The strong in grace, in truth victorious;
Her star is risen, her light is come.
All hail, thou precious One,
Lord Jesus, God's dear Son!
Alleluia!
The joyful call we answer all,
And follow to the nuptial hall.
3. Lamb of God, the heavens adore thee,
And men and angels sing before thee
With harp and cymbal's clearest tone.
By the pearly gates in wonder
We stand, and swell the voice of thunder
In bursts of choral melody.
To mortal eyes and ears
What glory now appears!
Alleluia!
We raise the song, we swell the throng,
To praise thee ages all along. Languages: English Tune Title: WACHET AUF

Wake, Awake, for Night Is Flying
Author: Philipp Nicolai; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Hymns to the Living God #97 (2017) Meter: 8.9.8.8.9.8.6.6.4.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Wake, awake, for night is flying,
the watchmen on the heights are crying;
awake, Jerusalem, at last.
Midnight hears the welcome voices,
and at the thrilling cry rejoices:
"Come forth, you maidens! Night is past.
The Bridegroom comes! Awake;
your lamps with gladness take!"
Alleluia!
Prepare yourselves to meet the Lord,
whose light has stirred the waiting guard.
2 Zion hears the watchmen singing,
and in her heart new joy is springing.
She wakes, she rises from her gloom,
for her Lord comes down all-glorious,
and strong in grace, in truth victorious.
Her star is ris'n; her light is come.
O, come, you Blessed One,
Lord Jesus, God's own Son.
Sing hosanna!
We go until the halls we view
where You have bid us dine with You.
3 Now let all the heav'ns adore You,
and saints and angels sing before You.
The harps and cymbals all unite.
Of one pearl each shining portal,
where, dwelling with the choir immortal,
we gather round your dazzling light.
No eye has seen, no ear
has yet been trained to hear
what joy is ours!
Crescendos rise; Your halls resound;
hosannas blend in cosmic sound. Topics: Jesus Christ Advent Languages: English Tune Title: WACHET AUF

Wake, Awake for Night Is Flying
"Sleepers, Wake!" A Voice Astounds Us
Author: Philipp Nicolai (1556-1608); Carl P. Daw, Jr. (1944-) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #110 (1998) Lyrics: 1 “Sleepers, wake!” a voice astounds us;
the shout of rampart-guards surrounds us:
"Awake, Jerusalem, arise!"
Midnight’s peace their cry has broken,
their urgent summons clearly spoken:
"The time has come, O maidens wise!
Rise up, and give us light;
the Bridegroom is in sight.
Alleluia!
Your lamps prepare and hasten there,
that you the wedding feast may share."
2 Zion hears the watchmen singing.
Her heart with joyful hope is springing;
she wakes and hurries through the night.
Forth he comes, her bridegroom glorious
in strength of grace, in truth victorious:
her star is risen, her light grows bright.
Now come, most worthy Lord,
God's Son, Incarnate Word,
alleluia!
We follow all and heed your call
to come into the banquet hall.
3 Lamb of God, the heavens adore you;
let saints and angels sing before you,
as harps and cymbals swell the sound.
Twelve great pearls, the city's portals:
through them we stream to join the immmortals
as we with joy your throne surround.
No eye has known the sight,
no ear heard such delight:
alleluia!
Therefore we sing to greet our King;
forever let our praises ring. Topics: Advent Scripture: Ezekiel 3:16-17 Languages: English Tune Title: WACHET AUF
