Author: John Keble Hymnal: The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal #38 (1999) 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
Hover around us while we pray;
new perils past, new sins forgiven,
New thoughts of God, new hope 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 great love
Fit us for perfect rest above;
And help us this and every day
To live more nearly as we pray.
