13641. Praise The Lord, When Blushing Morning

1 Praise the Lord, when blushing morning
Wakes the blossoms fresh with dew;
Praise Him when revived creation
Beams with beauties fair and new.

2 Praise the Lord, and may His blessing
Guide us in the way of truth;
Keep our feet from paths of error,
Make us holy in our youth.

3 Praise the Lord when early breezes
Come so fragrant from the flowers;
Praise thou willow by the brook-side,
Praise, ye birds among the bowers.
