Lyics

SEE how the rising sun

Pursues his shining way,

And wide proclaims his Maker's praise

With every brightening ray.



Thus would my rising soul

Its heavenly parent sing;

And to its great Original 

A humble tribute bring.



O may I grateful use

The blessings I receive,

And ne'er in thought, or word, or deed,

His Holy Spirit grieve.
