  1. Wake, Awake, for Night Is Flying Hymn by Philipp Nicolai Translation by Catherine Winkworth Tune by Philipp Nicolai Harmony by J. S. Bach

  2. Wake, Awake, for Night Is Flying 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, ye virgins, night is past;

  3. Wake, Awake, for Night Is Flying the Bridegroom comes, awake; your lamps with gladness take: Alleluia! And for his marriage feast prepare, for ye must go and meet him there.

  4. Wake, Awake, for Night Is Flying 2. Zion hears the watchmen singing, and all her heart with joy is springing; she wakes, she rises from her gloom; for her Lord comes down all-glorious, the strong in grace, in truth victorious. Her Star is risen; her Light is come.

  5. Wake, Awake, for Night Is Flying Ah come, thou blessed One, God's own beloved Son: Alleluia! We follow till the halls we see where thou hast bid us sup with thee.

  6. Wake, Awake, for Night Is Flying 3. Now let all the heavens adore thee, and saints and angels sing before thee, with harp and cymbal's clearest tone; of one pearl each shining portal, where we are with the choir immortal of angels round thy dazzling throne;

  7. Wake, Awake, for Night Is Flying nor eye hath seen, nor ear hath yet attained to hear what there is ours; but we rejoice and sing to thee our hymn of joy eternally.
