God of the Morning, at Whose Voice (EN 9)

EN 9 God of the Morning, at Whose Voice

Gen.1.3

Versi Version 1

1

God of the morning, at Whose voice

The cheerful sun makes haste to rise,

And like a giant doth rejoice

To run his journey through the skies.

2

From the fair chambers of the east

The circuit of his race begins,

And, without weariness or rest,

Round the whole earth he flies and shines.

3

O like the sun may I fulfill

Th’appointed duties of the day,

With ready mind and active will

March on and keep my heav’nly way.

4

But I shall rove and lose the race,

If God, my Sun, should disappear,

And leave me in this world’s wild maze,

To follow every wand’ring star.

5

Lord, Thy commands are clean and pure,

Enlight’ning our beclouded eyes;

Thy threat’nings just, Thy promise sure,

Thy Gospel makes the simple wise.

6

Give me Thy counsel for my guide,

And then receive me to Thy bliss;

All my desires and hopes beside

Are faint and cold compared with this.
