O, let us exalt our dear Lord and proclaim,
In songs of true gratitude, praise to His name!
As songs of the angels in sweetest accord,
Our thanks and our praises shall rise to the Lord.

Lyrics from Acts 9:36-42

Lyrics
At Joppa died the dear one there,
Who lived in want and meekness;
She had a loving heart and cared
For needy ones in weakness.
And many tears of grief did fall,
'Till Peter sent by God did call,
O Tabitha, arise! O Tabitha, arise!

O that the Lord in this our time
Would send a Peter to us,
That he with heaven's joy sublime
Would rouse us to be zealous.
O, God, from Heaven strengthen us,
Revive Thy church with mightiness!
O Tabitha, arise! O Tabitha, arise!

How can the tears here numbered be?
The hands in constant striving,
The countless throngs who stubbornly
In wretchedness are living;
Unnumbered are the wounds so deep,
Which make this generation weep.
O Tabitha, arise! O Tabitha, arise!
