Jam lucis orto sidere
Now that the daylight fills the sky
Author: J. M. Neale, 1818-66 Appears in 81 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Now that the daylight fills the sky,
We lift our hearts to God on high,
That he, in all we do or say,
Would keep us free from harm to-day:
2 Would guard our hearts and tongues from strife;
From anger's din would hide our life;
From all ill sights would turn our eyes;
And close our ears to vanities:
3 Would keep our inmost conscience pure;
Our souls from folly would secure;
Would bid us check the pride of sense
With due and holy abstinence.
4 So we, when this new day is gone,
And night in turn is drawing on,
With conscience by the world unstained
Shall praise his name for victory gained.
5 O God the Father, unto thee
Let everlasting glory be;
And glory to thine only Son,
With God the Spirit, ever One. Amen. Topics: The Christian Year From Trinity Sunday to Advent; Office Hymn Weekday mornings Used With Tune: JAM LUCIS ORTO Text Sources: Latin, 8th century or earlier
