Awake, my soul, in joyful lays

About this hymn

As printed As printed: hymn number «1168» (large), tune name «LOVING-KINDNESS. L. M.» centred (condensed capitals and small capitals), «ARRANGED.» at the right (capitals and small capitals); under the number, in italics, «Other stanzas, No. 110.» — the remaining stanzas are those of hymn 110 («Awake, my soul, in joyful lays», p. 40, words only, «Samuel Medley.», whose reference line «1168, 101, 47.» points back to this tune). Only stanza 1 is printed here, between the staves (numbered «1.»), with the last line sung twice and «Loving-kindness, loving-kindness,» between; it is given below with the syllables joined into whole words, as sung. No author is printed with this hymn. «Redeemer's» and the first «kindness» are printed unhyphenated over their notes. The third letter of «soul» is a damaged «u» that looks like «c» («socl») — read «soul» (the text of hymn 110). This page prints «O how free!» without the comma after «O» that hymn 110 has («O, how free!»), and «loving-kindness» hyphenated throughout. The print sets a thin space before «;» and «!» («praise ;», «me ;», «free !»); it is closed up here.
