Come awake oh my soul, come and praise him From the light of the dawn till i sleep Let me sing of your love and your mercies Come awake oh my soul, i will praise him There is one thing i ask, one thing i seek That i may dwell in the house of my king Better one day in your house than a thousand elsewhere Come awake oh my soul, i will praise him For whatever i've gained i count it all loss For the love of my christ above all Let my jesus, my savior be my joy Come awake oh my soul i will praise him
