The Day-Star

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: Laudes Domini #3 (1890) Topics: Opening of Service; Opening of Service First Line: Christ, whose glory fills the skies Lyrics: 1 Christ, whose glory fills the skies, Christ, the true, the only light, Sun of Righteousness, arise, Triumph o'er the shades of night; Day-spring from on high, be near, Da-star in my heart appear. 2 Dark and cheerless is the morn, If thy light is hid from me; Joyless is the day's return, Till thy mercy's beams I see; Till they inward light impart, Warmth and gladness to my heart. 3 Visit, then this soul of mine, Pierce the gloom of sin and grief; Fill me, radiant Sun divine! Scatter all my unbelief; More and more thyself display, Shining to the perfect day. Languages: English Tune Title: HALLE

How deep thy counsels! how divine! 4 Lord! I shall share a glorious part, When grace hath well refined my heart, And fresh supplies of joy are shed, Like holy oil to cheer my head. 5 Then shall I see, and hear, and know All I desired or wished below; And every power find sweet employ, In that eternal world of joy.

With long desire my Spirit faints, To meet the assemblies of thy saints. 2 My flesh would rest in thine abode, My panting heart cries out for God; My God! my King! why should I be So far from all my joys, and thee? 3 Blest are the saints who sit on high, Around thy throne of majesty; Thy brightest glories shine above, And all their work is praise and love. 4 Blest are the souls who find a place Within the temple of thy grace; There they behold thy gentler rays, And seek thy face, and learn thy praise. 5 Cheerful they walk with growing strength, Till all shall meet in heaven at length; Till all before thy face appear, And join in nobler worship there.

Each day's Duties

Author: John Keble Hymnal: Laudes Domini #9 (1890) Topics: Opening of Service; Opening of Service First Line: New every morning is the love Lyrics: 1 New every morning is the love Our wakening and uprising prove; Through sleep and darkness safely brought, Restored 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 If, on our daily course, our mind Be set to hallow all we find, New treasures still, of countless price, God will provide for sacrifice. 4 The trivial round, the common task, Will furnish all we need to ask, Room to deny ourselves, a road To bring us daily nearer God. 5 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.

Dawn on these realms of woe and sin; Fain would we leave this weary road, And sleep in death to rest with God. Languages: English
