A Collection of Psalms and Hymns for Publick Worship ‎#LV

LV. Behold the morning sun

1 Behold, the morning sun
Begins his glorious way;
His beams thro' all the nations run,
And life and light convey.

2 But where the gospel comes,
It spreads diviner light;
It calls dead sinners from their tombs,
And gives the blind their sight.

3 How perfect is thy word,
And all thy judgments just,
Forever sure thy promise, Lord,
Which we securely trust.

4 My gracious God, how plain
Are thy directions giv'n!
Oh, may I never read in vain,
But find the path to heav'n.

5 While with our heart and tongue
We spread thy praise abroad,
Accept the worship and the song,
Our Father and our God!
