Text:As the sun doth daily rise

7. As the sun doth daily rise

1. As the sun doth daily rise,
Brightening all the morning skies,
So to Thee with one accord
Lift we up our hearts, O Lord!

2. Day by day provide us food,
For from Thee come all things good:
Strength unto our souls afford
From Thy Living Bread, O Lord!

3. Be our Guard in sin and strife;
Be the Leader of our life;
Lest like sheep we stray abroad,
Stay our wayward feet, O Lord!

4. Quickened by the Spirit's grace
All Thy holy will to trace,
While we daily search Thy word,
Wisdom true impart, O Lord!

5. When the sun withdraws his light,
When we seek our beds at night,
Thou, by sleepless hosts adored,
Hear the prayer of faith, O Lord!

6. Praise we, with the heavenly host,
Father, Son, and Holy Ghost;
Thee would we with one accord,
Praise and magnify, O Lord!

Amen.
