Text: | New every morning is Thy love |

1 New every morning is Thy love,
Our waking and our rising prove;
Thro' sleep and darkness safely brought,
Returned to life, and power, and thought.
2 New mercies, each returning day,
Hover around us while we pray,
New perils past, new sins forgiven,
New thoughts of God, new hopes of heaven.
3 The trivial round, the common task,
Will furnish all we ought to ask,
Room to deny ourselves; a road
To bring us daily nearer God.
4 Only, O Lord, in Thy dear love,
Fit us for perfect rest above,
And help us this and every day,
To live more nearly as we pray.
