Lyics

ON thee, each morning, O my God,

My waking thoughts attend,

In whom are founded all my hopes,

In whom my wishes end.



My soul, in pleasing wonder lost,

Thou boundless love surveys,

And, fir'd with grateful zeal, prepares

The sacrifice of praise.



When ev'ning slumbers press my eyes,

With thy protection blest,

In peace and safety I commit

My weary limbs to rest.



My spirit, in thy hands secure,

Fears no approaching ill;

For, whether waking or asleep,

Thou, Lord, art with me still.



At morn, at noon, at night, I'll still

The pleasing work pursue,

And thee alone will praise, to whom

All praise is ever due.
