The Hymnal ‎#1

1. Every morning mercies new

1. Every morning mercies new
Fall as fresh as morning dew;
Every morning let us pay
Tribute with the early day:
For thy mercies Lord are sure;
Thy compassion doth endure.

2. Still the greatness of Thy love
Daily doth our sins remove;
Daily, far as east from west
Lifts the burden from the breast;
Gives unbought to those who pray
Strength to stand in evil day.

3. Let our prayers each morn prevail,
That these gifts may never fail;
And, as we confess the sin
And the tempter's power within,
Every morning, for the strife,
Feed us with the Bread of Life.

4. As the morning light returns,
As the sun with splendor burns,
Teach us still to turn to Thee,
Ever-Blesséd Trinity
With our hands our hearts to raise.
In unfailing prayer and praise.

Amen.
