Author: John Keble Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 365 hymnals Scripture: Lamentations 3:23 Lyrics: 1 New ev'ry morning is the love our waking and uprising prove; through sleep and darkness safely brought, restored to life, and pow'r, and thought. 2 New mercies each returning day hover around us while we pray; new perils past, new sins forgiv'n, new thoughts of God, new hopes of heav'n. 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 or ask: room to deny ourselves, a road to bring us daily nearer God. 5 Seek we no more; content with these, let present rapture, comfort, ease as God shall bid them, come and go-- the secret, this, of rest below. 6 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.
