Lyrics
Awake, O love
Lyrics: Arlene Pourroy, with Scripture references
Exodus 3:1-5, 11-14; Hebrews 11:1
Composer: Ross D. Harrington, Arr. Arlene Pourroy
Awake, O love, and shine within my heart
Awake, awake O love
Melt fog and shadow. Light my way
Reveal, reveal faith’s living substance in every deed
Destroy the mist, the fear and doubt
Reveal, reveal God’s purpose to my waiting thought
Beyond the prideful hills of mortal sense
Hidden by smoke of human art
God’s purpose for man waits forever
Afar and yet within each heart
Discovered in the sheepfold of obedience
And service in another’s field, a sudden flame
A light shines on the sleeping hope
As God sent Moses at the burning bush
The great I AM sends me to you to show
To show God’s love in Christly works and ways
Awake, O love, and shine within my heart
Awake, awake O love
