A Morning Hymn

Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #LXXXVIII (1791) Topics: liturgical Opening Hymns; Morning Hymns First Line: God of the Morning, at whose Voice Lyrics: 1 God of the Morning, at whose Voice The chearful Sun makes haste to rise, And like a Giant doth rejoice To run his Journey thro' the Skies; 2 From the fair Chambers of the East The Circuit of his Race begins, And, without Weariness or Rest, Round the whole Earth he flies and shines; 3 Oh, like the Sun may I fulfil Th' appointed Duties of the Day, With ready mind and active Will March on and keep my heav'nly Way. [4 But I shall rove and lose the Race, If GOD, my Sun, should disappear, And leave me in this World's wild Maze, To follow ev'ry wand'ring Star.] 5 LORD, thy Commands are clean and pure, Enlightning our beclouded Eyes; Thy Threat'nings just, thy Promise sure: Thy Gospel makes the Simple wise. 6 Give me thy Counsel for my Guide, And then receive me to thy Bliss; All my Desires and Hopes beside Are faint and cold compar'd with this. Scripture: Psalm 19 Languages: English

Hear the hymn ascending, angels, saints, their voices blending. Bow your ear to us here; hearken, O Lord Jesus, to our humble praises. 3 O great Fount of blessing, purify my spirit, trusting only in your merit; like the holy angels gathered all before you, may I ceaselessly adore you. Let your will ever still rule your church terrestrial, as the hosts celestial. Languages: English Tune Title: ARNSBERG

Lyrics: 1 Welcome to another day! Night is blinded. "Welcome," let creation say; darkness ended. Comes the sunshine after dew, time for labour; time to love my God anew and my neighbour. 2 Welcome to the day of prayer with God's people welcome is the joy we share at this table. Bread and wine from heaven fall: come, receive it that the Christ may reign in all who believe it. 3 Welcome is the peace that's given, sure for ever; welcome is the hope of heaven when life's over. As we work and as we pray, trust God's story: come then, as the dawning day heralds glory! Michael Saward (born 1932) © Michael Saward/Jubilate Hymns 7 4 7 4 D Used By Permission.
