Rise up with willing feet,

Go forth, the Bridegroom meet:

Alleluia!

Bear through the night your well trimmed light,

Speed forth to join the marriage rite.

Zion hears the watchmen singing,

And all her heart with joy is springing,

She wakes, she rises from her gloom;

Forth her Bridegroom comes, all-glorious,

The strong in grace, in truth victorious;
