Author: John Keble Hymnal: The Hymnal of The Evangelical United Brethren Church #38 (1957) Meter: 8.8.8.8 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,
Around us hover 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 ought to ask;
Room to deny ourselves, a road
To bring us daily nearer God.
5 And now, 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.
Amen. Topics: Worship Morning Scripture: Lamentations 3:22-23 Tune Title: MELCOMBE
