A Gentle Call
A gentle call, like whispers of the dawn, raise a hymn of love
Hosanna! raise the pealing hymn, to David’s Son and Lord;
With cherubim and seraphim, exalt the incarnate Word.
Hosanna! Lord, our feeble voice, in earthly chorus brings;
We in Thy name would now rejoice, O King of kings of kings!
Hosanna! Sovereign, Prophet, Priest, how vast Thy refuge-square!
Thy blood-bought church, from first to least, is Thy peculiar care.
Hosanna! Master, lo, we bring our tribute-hearts to Thee;
Body and soul, O glorious King, Thine, Thine alone to be.
Hosanna! once Thy temple rung with children’s praises free;
And sweet the song of infant tongue that rose, O Lord, to Thee.
Hosanna! may each heart become a temple, pure and true,
Where Thou shalt find a peaceful home, and every grace renew.
Hosanna! Lord, a little while, and we shall see Thy face;
Shall bask in Thine eternal smile, and sing Thy matchless grace.
Raise your hands, let the praises flow, a hymn that never ends,
For in our hearts, the song shall grow, forever, we are friends.
