Awake, my soul, and with the sun

Hymnal: VoP1883 #1 (1883) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Awake, my soul, and with the sun Thy daily course of duty run: Shake off dull sloth, and early rise To pay thy morning sacrifice. 2 Let all thy converse be sincere, Thy conscience as the noon-day clear; Think how the all-seeing God, thy ways And all thy secret thoughts surveys. 3 Wake, and lift up thyself, my heart, And with the angels bear thy part; Who all night long unwearied sing, "Glory to Thee, eternal King." 4 Lord, I my vows to Thee renew; Scatter my sins as morning dew; Guard my first springs of thought and will, And with Thyself my spirit fill. 5 Direct, control, suggest this day All I design, or do, or say, That all my powers, with all their might, In Thy sole glory may unite. 6 Praise God, from whom all blessings flow, Praise Him, all creatures here below; Praise Him above, ye heavenly host; Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Amen. Topics: Morning Languages: English Tune Title: MORNING HYMN

New every morning is the love

Hymnal: VoP1883 #2 (1883) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 New every morning is the love Our waking and uprising prove; Thro' 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 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 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. Amen. Topics: Morning Languages: English Tune Title: MELCOMBE

Now the dreary night is done

Hymnal: VoP1883 #3 (1883) Lyrics: 1 Now the dreary night is done, Comes again the glorious sun; Crimson clouds and silver white Wait upon his breaking light. 2 Child of Mary, Thou dost know What of danger, joy, or woe Shall to-day my portion be-- Let me meet it all in Thee. 3 Thou wast meek and undefiled-- Make me holy too, and mild: Thou didst foil the tempter's power; Help me in temptation's hour. 4 Thou didst love Thy mother here- Make me gentle, kind, and dear; Thou wast subject to her word-- Teach me to obey, O Lord. 5 Fretful feelings, passion, pride Never did with Thee abide: Make me watch myself to-day, That they lead me not astray. Amen. Topics: Morning Languages: English Tune Title: SMALLWOOD

Jesus, holy, undefiled

Hymnal: VoP1883 #5 (1883) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, holy, undefiled, Listen to a little child; Thou hast sent the glorious light, Chasing far the silent night. 2 Thou hast sent the sun to shine O'er this glorious world of Thine; Warmth to give, and pleasant glow, On each tender flower below. 3 Now the little birds arise, Chirping gaily in the skies; Thee their tiny voices praise In the early songs they raise. 4 Thou by whom the birds are fed, Give to me my daily bread; And Thy Holy Spirit give, Without whom I cannot live. 5 Make me, Lord, obedient, mild, As becomes a little child; All day long, in every way, Teach me what to do and say. 6 Make me, Lord, in work and play, Thine more truly every day; And when Thou at last shall come, Take me to Thy heavenly home. Amen. Topics: Morning; Hymns for Little Children Languages: English Tune Title: FERRIER

The breaking morn comes back to bless

Hymnal: VoP1883 #6 (1883) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 The breaking morn comes back to bless The earth from pole to pole; So come, sweet Sun of Righteousness, And shine into my soul. 2 A silver mist along the lawn, From every dewy sod, Goes up to heaven; and so at dawn I lift my thoughts to God. 3 I think how Thou didst wake, O Lord, Before the break of day, And seek the lonely mountain sward; So teach my lips to pray. 4 I think how Thou didst sleep and rise, So many nights and days, A Child obedient, holy, wise, And perfect in Thy ways. 5 The dawn of day, the dawn of life, Were blest alike to Thee; Thou know'st the danger and the strike; Lord bless them both to me. Amen. Topics: Morning Languages: English Tune Title: DAWN

O God, who, when the night was deep

Hymnal: VoP1883 #7 (1883) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O God, who, when the night was deep, Hast kept me safe and lent me sleep, Now with Thy sun Thou bid'st me rise, And look around with older eyes. 2 Each happy morning Thou dost give, I have one morning less to live; O help me so this day to spend, To make me fitter for the end. 3 O bid all wicked thoughts to fly; The fretful word, the idle eye; Help me to think in all I do, "God sees me: - would He have it so?" 4 Make my first wish and thought to be For others sooner than for me; And let me pardon them, as I Hope for God's pardon when I die. 5 Be with me when I work and play; Be with me now and every day: Be near me, when I pray Thee hear; And when I pray not, - Lord! be near. Amen. Topics: Morning Languages: English Tune Title: S. HELEN

Abide with me: fast falls the eventide

Hymnal: VoP1883 #9a (1883) Lyrics: 1 Abide with me: fast falls the eventide; The darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide; When other helpers fail, and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, O abide with me. 2 Swift to its close, ebbs out life's little day; Earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away; Change and decay in all around I see; O Thou, who changest not, abide with me. 3 I need Thy presence every passing hour; What but Thy grace can foil the tempter's power? Who like Thyself my guide and stay can be? Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me. 4 I fear no foe, with Thee at hand to bless: Ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness, Where is death's sting? where, grave, thy victory? I triumph still, if Thou abide with me. 5 Hold Thou Thy Cross before my closing eyes; Shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies; Heaven's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee; In life, in death, O Lord, abide with me. Amen. Topics: Evening; Festivals Languages: English Tune Title: EVENTIDE
