Return to Handbell – Full Choir

Mu Süda Ärka Üles (Awake, My Heart) (handbells, 4-7 octaves plus handchimes, 3 octaves, and optional handbell duet, Level 3-)

We had the privilege of tagging along with Campanelli, an internationally-known Estonian handbell ensemble, for a week in 2017. This song, Mu Süda Ärka Üles (“Awake, My Heart”), was a high point for us because there was an eight-bell part added onto their full-choir arrangement by Susan T. Nelson. This is our eight-bell arrangement of this wonderful song.

Estonian
Mu süda, ärka üles
ja kiida Loojat lauldes.
Kes kõik head meile annab
ja muret ikka kannab.

Su sõna tõeks läinud,
ma olen päeva näinud.
Ei häda saand mu ligi,
mind varjas Sinu vägi.

Mu Jumal, nii kui öösel
mind hoidis Sinu käsi,
nii päeval ka mind kanna,
mul inglid varjuks anna.

Ka töös mind ise aita,
mis õige, mulle näita.
Su hoolde kõik ma jätan,
mis iial ette võtan.

Su heldus jäägu mulle,
mu süda templiks Sulle.
Su sõna mind siin toitku,
teed taeva poole näitku.

English
My heart, wake up
and praise the Creator by singing.
Whoever gives us everything good
and still worries.

Your word has come true
I’ve seen the day.
I do not care about my food
I was concealed by your power.

My God, both at night
I was holding your hand
so wear me the day too
I’ll give the angels a shadow.

Help me work in my work too
what’s right, show me.
I care for everything I leave
what ever i do

Be kind to me
my heart is the temple for you.
Your word for me here is a food,
Road to the meeting in the sky.
