Now anew the day is dawning;
Sun of grace the shadows flee,
Brighten Thou my Sunday morning;
With Thy joyous sunshine blest
Happy is my day of rest.
2 Fount of all our joy and peace,
To thy living waters lead me;
Thou from earth my soul release
And with grace and mercy feed me;
Bless Thy Word that it may prove
Rich in fruits of faith and love.
3 Kindle Thou the sacrifice
That upon my lips is lying;
Clear the shadows from mine eyes,
That, from ev'ry error flying,
No strange fire may in me glow
That Thine altar doth not know.
4 Let me with my heart to-day,
Holy, Holy, Holy, singing,
Rapt a while from earth away
All my soul to Thee up-springing.
Have a foretaste inly giv'n
How they worship Thee in heav'n. Topics: Opening Hymns Used With Tune: [Light of Light, enlighten me]
