Salutes thy waking eyes;
Once more, my voice thy tribute pay
To Him that rules the skies.
2 Night unto night His name repeats,
The day renews the sound,
Wide as the heavens on which He sits,
To turn the seasons round.
3 'Tis He supports my mortal frame;
My tongue shall speak His praise.
My sins might rouse His wrath to flame,
And yet His wrath delays.
4 O God, let all my hours be Thine
While I enjoy the light,
Then shall my sun in smiles decline
And bring a pleasant night.
Amen. Topics: Worship and Praise Morning; Morning; Opening Scripture: Lamentations 3:22-23 Used With Tune: MANOAH
