Music attributed to Thomas Clark.
Sung to the following words:

Verse 1. Mortals awake, with angels join
And chant the solemn lay,
And chant the solemn lay.
Joy, love and gratitude combine
To hail the auspicious day. Verse 2. Swift through the vast expanse it flows
And loud the echo rolled,
And loud the echo rolled.
The theme, the song, the joy was new,
'Twas more than heaven could hold.

Verse 3. Hail, Prince of Life, for ever hail,
Redeemer, Brother, Friend,
Redeemer, Brother, Friend.
Though earth and time and life should fail,
Thy praise shall never end.
