LyicsAGAIN, from calm and sweet repose,
I rise to hail the dawn;
Again my waking eyes unclose,
To view the smiling morn.
Great God of love, thy praise I'll sing;
For thou hast safely kept
My soul beneath thy guardian wing,
And watch'd me while I slept.
Glory to thee, eternal Lord;
O teach my heart to pray,
And thy blest Spirit's help afford,
To guide me through the day.
Let ev'ry thought and word accord
With thy most holy will;
Each deed the precepts of thy word
With pious aim fulfil.
From danger, sin, and ev'ry ill,
My constant Guardian prove;
O sanctify my heart, and fill
With thoughts of holy love.
