Author: Ambrose of Milan, 340-397; John Mason Neale, 1818-1866 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #816 (1997) First Line: Now that the daylight fills the sky Lyrics: 1 Now that the daylight fills the sky,
we lift our hearts to heaven on high,
that God, in all we do or say,
would keep us free from harm this day.
2 Our hearts and lips may God restrain;
keep us from causing others pain,
that we may see and serve the Son,
and grow in love for everyone.
3 From evil may God guard our eyes,
our ears from empty praise and lies;
from selfishness and hearts release,
that we may serve, and know God's peace,
4 that we, when this new day is gone,
and night in turn is drawing on,
with conscience free from sin and blame,
may praise and bless the holy Name.
5 To God the Father, heavenly Light,
to Christ, revealed in earthly night,
to God the Holy Ghost we raise
our equal and unceasing praise. Topics: God Shelter / Shield; Hymns with Doxologies; Morning Scripture: Psalm 34:13-14 Languages: English Tune Title: HERR, JESU CHRIST
