When Morning Gilds the Skies

Author: Edward Caswall, 1814-1878 Hymnal: Worship and Rejoice #111 (2003) Meter: 6.6.6.6.6.6 Scripture: Psalm 50:1 Lyrics: 1 When morning gilds the skies, my heart awaking cries, may Jesus Christ be praised! Alike at work and prayer to Jesus I repair, may Jesus Christ be praised! 2 Does sadness fill my mind? A solace here I find, may Jesus Christ be praised! Or fades my earthly bliss? My comfort still is this, may Jesus Christ be praised! 3 The night becomes as day, when from the heart we say, may Jesus Christ be praised! The powers of darkness fear when this sweet chant they hear, may Jesus Christ be praised! 4 Be this, while life is mine, my canticle divine, may Jesus Christ be praised! Be this th'eternal song through all the ages long, may Jesus Christ be praised! Topics: Adoration Languages: English Tune Title: LAUDES DOMINI

Who was, and is, the same, For all eternity, Immortal Father, great I AM, All glory be."
