Full Lyrics
1. Arise up, my fair one, arise,
Come away, come away, come away!
No longer the wintry storms darken the skies,
Come away, come away, come away!
The flowers all bright in the meadows appear,
The voice of the singers delighteth the ear,
And the note of the turtledove echoeth near,
Come away, come away, come away!
Refrain:
Hark! the loving voice of Jesus,
Comforting the church, His Bride,
After every trial ended,
From each error purified!
2. The fig tree puts forth her green fruit thro' the dale,
Come away, come away, come away!
And the vine with her grapes fills with perfume the gale,
Come away, come away, come away!
To the cleft of the rock, oh, my love, thou dost flee;
Let thy voice breathe a welcome, thy face let me see,
For fair is thy face, and thy voice sweet to me,
Come away, come away, come away! (Refrain)
3. The trees of the vineyard are promising well,
Come away, come away, come away!
The tender young grapes are beginning to swell,
Come away, come away, come away!
Be watchful, ye servants, as daylight declines,
And take care the foxes that ravage the vines,
The little sly foxes that ravage the vines,
Come away, come away, come away! (Refrain)
