Ye Birds, Awake, For Dawn Is Near
Author: B. S. Ingemann Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #49 (1927) Meter: 9.9.11.15 Hymnal Title: Hymnal for Church and Home First Line: Ye birds, awake, for the dawn is near Lyrics: 1 Ye birds, awake, for the dawn is near,
Enliven the land with your singing;
Sing praises to God from your loftiest sphere
And thank Him for life and the light that the morning is bringing.
2 The swallows fly, by the church at play,
While sparrows from dwellings are pouring;
They all sing good morning and bid you good day:
"God's speed to you all while we joyfully upward are soaring."
3 Their joyful songs to the Lord arise,
He knows ev'ry bird under heaven;
He watches their flight and He heareth their sighs,
He gives them protection when tempests them widely have driven.
4 Thou watchest over Thy children, God,
Thy child in Thy kindness rejoices;
When leaving their perches the birds soar abroad,
Thou hearest the praise of Thy children 'mongst millions of voices.
