Author: Elizabeth Scott Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #540 (1886) Lyrics: 1 My opening eyes with rapture see
The light of thy returning day;
My thoughts, O God, ascend to thee
While thus my early vows I pay.
2 I yield my heart to thee alone,
Nor would receive another guest:
Eternal King, erect thy throne,
And reign sole monarch in my breast.
3 O, bid this trifling world retire,
And drive each carnal thought away;
Nor let me feel one vain desire,
One sinful thought, through all the day.
4 Then, to thy courts when I repair,
My soul shall rise on joyful wing,
The wonders of thy love declare,
And join the strains which angels sing. Topics: The Christian Family Devotion Tune Title: HEBRON
