Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal ‎#301

301. Awake, my soul! and with the sun

1 Awake, my soul! and with the sun
Thy daily stage of duty run;
Shake off dull sloth, and gladly rise
To pay thy morning sacrifice.

2 Lord, I my vows to Thee renew:
Disperse my sins as morning dew;
Guard my first springs of thought and will
And with Thyself my spirit fill.

3 Direct, control, suggest, this day,
All I design to do or say;
That all my powers, with all their might,
In Thy sole glory may unite.

4 All praise to Thee, who safe hast kept,
And hast refreshed me, while I slept!
O Savior, when from death I wake,
Let me of endless life partake.
