LyicsSee how the rising sun
Pursues his shining way;
And wide proclaims his Maker's praise,
And ev'ry bright'ning ray.
Thus would my rising soul
Its heav'nly Parent sing;
And to its great original,
The humble tribute bring.
Serene I laid me down,
Beneath his guardian care;
I slept, and I awoke, and found
My kind preserver near.
My life I would anew,
Devote, O Lord, to thee;
And in thy service would I spend
A long eternity.
