Praise to Christ

Author: E. Caswall Hymnal: LD1890 #1 (1890) First Line: When morning gilds the skies Lyrics: 1 When morning gilds the skies, My heart awaking cries, May Jesus Christ be praised; Alike at work and prayer, To Jesus I repair; May Jesus Christ be praised. 2 To thee, O God, above, I cry with glowing love, May Jesus Christ be praised: This song of sacred joy, It never seems to cloy; May Jesus Christ be praised. 3 Does sadness fill my mind, A solace here I find; May Jesus Christ be praised: Or fades my earthly bliss, My comfort still is this: May Jesus Christ be praised. 4 When evil thoughts molest, With this I shield my breast: May Jesus Christ be praised: The powers of darkness fear, When this sweet chant I hear: May Jesus Christ be praised. 5 When sleep her balm denies, My silent spirit sighs, May Jesus Christ be praised: The night becomes as day, When from the heart we say, May Jesus Christ be praised. 6 Be this, while life is mine, My canticle divine: May Jesus Christ be praised: Be this the eternal song, Through all the ages long: May Jesus Christ be praised.

The triune God

Author: Reginald Heber Hymnal: LD1890 #2 (1890) First Line: Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty! Lyrics: 1 Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty! Early in the morning our song shall rise to thee; Holy, holy, holy, merciful and mighty, God in three persons, blessed Trinity! 2 Holy, holy, holy! all the saints adore thee, Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea; Cherubim and seraphim falling down before thee, Which wert and art and evermore shalt be. 3 Holy, holy, holy! though the darkness hide thee, Though the eye of sinful man thy glory may not see; Only thou art holy; there is none beside thee, Perfect in power, in love and purity. 4 Holy, holy, holy! Lord God Almighty! All thy works shall praise thy name, in earth and sky and sea; Holy, holy, holy, merciful and mighty; God in three persons, blessed Trinity!

The Day-Star

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: LD1890 #3 (1890) First Line: Christ, whose glory fills the skies Lyrics: 1 Christ, whose glory fills the skies, Christ, the true, the only light, Sun of Righteousness, arise, Triumph o'er the shades of night; Day-spring from on high, be near, Da-star in my heart appear. 2 Dark and cheerless is the morn, If thy light is hid from me; Joyless is the day's return, Till thy mercy's beams I see; Till they inward light impart, Warmth and gladness to my heart. 3 Visit, then this soul of mine, Pierce the gloom of sin and grief; Fill me, radiant Sun divine! Scatter all my unbelief; More and more thyself display, Shining to the perfect day.

Psalm 5

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: LD1890 #4 (1890) First Line: Lord, in the morning thou shalt hear Lyrics: 1 Lord! in the morning thou shalt hear My voice ascending high; To thee will I direct my prayer, To thee lift up mine eye: 2 Up to the hills, where Christ has gone To plead for all his saints, Presenting at his Father's throne, Our songs and our complaints. 3 Thou art a God, before whose sight, The wicked shall not stand; Sinners shall ne'er be thy delight, Nor dwell at thy right hand. 4 But to thy house will I resort, To taste thy mercies there; I will frequent thy holy court, And worship in thy fear. 5 Oh, may thy Spirit guide my feet, In ways of righteousness, Make every path of duty straight, And plain before my face.

Psalm 122

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: LD1890 #5 (1890) First Line: How did my heart rejoice to hear Lyrics: 1 How did my heart rejoice to hear My friend devoutly say, "In Zion let us all appear, And keep the solemn day." 2 I love her gates, I love the road; The Church, adorned with grace, Stands like a palace built for God, To show his milder face. 3 Up to her courts, with joys unknown, The holy tribes repair; The Son of David holds his throne, And sits in judgment there. 4 Peace be within this sacred place, And joy a constant guest; With holy gifts and heavenly grace, Be her attendants blest. 5 My soul shall pray for Zion still, While life or breath remains; There my best friends, my kindred dwell, There God, my Saviour reigns.

Morning

Author: Thomas Ken Hymnal: LD1890 #6 (1890) First Line: Awake, my soul, and with the sun Lyrics: 1 Awake, my soul, and with the sun Thy daily stage of duty run; Shake off dull sloth, and joyful rise To pay thy morning sacrifice. 2 Awake, lift up thyself, my heart, And with the angels bear thy part, Who all night long unwearied sing High praises to the eternal King. 3 Glory to thee, who safe hast kept, And hast refreshed me when I slept; Grant, Lord, when I from death shall wake, I may of endless life partake. 4 Lord, I my vows to thee renew: Scatter my sins as morning dew; Guard my first springs of thought and will, And with thyself my Spirit fill. 5 Direct, control, suggest, this day, All I design, or do or say; That all my powers, with all their might, In thy sole glory may unite.

Psalm 92

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: LD1890 #7 (1890) First Line: Sweet is the work, my God, my King! Lyrics: 1 Sweet is the work, my God, my King! To praise thy name, give thanks, and sing; To show thy love by morning light, And talk of all thy truth at night. 2 Sweet is the day of sacred rest; No mortal cares shall seize my breast; Oh! may my heart in tune be found, Like David's harp of solemn sound! 3 My heart shall triumph in my Lord, And bless his works, and bless his word; Thy works of grace, how bright they shine! How deep thy counsels! how divine! 4 Lord! I shall share a glorious part, When grace hath well refined my heart, And fresh supplies of joy are shed, Like holy oil to cheer my head. 5 Then shall I see, and hear, and know All I desired or wished below; And every power find sweet employ, In that eternal world of joy.

Psalm 84

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: LD1890 #8 (1890) First Line: How pleasant, how divinely fair Lyrics: 1 How pleasant, how divinely fair, O Lord of hosts! thy dwellings are! With long desire my Spirit faints, To meet the assemblies of thy saints. 2 My flesh would rest in thine abode, My panting heart cries out for God; My God! my King! why should I be So far from all my joys, and thee? 3 Blest are the saints who sit on high, Around thy throne of majesty; Thy brightest glories shine above, And all their work is praise and love. 4 Blest are the souls who find a place Within the temple of thy grace; There they behold thy gentler rays, And seek thy face, and learn thy praise. 5 Cheerful they walk with growing strength, Till all shall meet in heaven at length; Till all before thy face appear, And join in nobler worship there.

Each day's Duties

Author: John Keble Hymnal: LD1890 #9 (1890) First Line: New every morning is the love Lyrics: 1 New every morning is the love Our wakening and uprising prove; Through sleep and darkness safely brought, Restored to life, and power, and thought. 2 New mercies, each returning day, Hover around us while we pray; New perils past, new sins forgiven, New thoughts of God, new hopes of heaven. 3 If, on our daily course, our mind Be set to hallow all we find, New treasures still, of countless price, God will provide for sacrifice. 4 The trivial round, the common task, Will furnish all we need to ask, Room to deny ourselves, a road To bring us daily nearer God. 5 Only, O Lord! in thy dear love Fit us for perfect rest above; And help us this and every day, To live more nearly as we pray.

"A nobler Rest"

Author: Philip Doddridge Hymnal: LD1890 #10 (1890) First Line: Thine earthly Sabbaths, Lord, we love Lyrics: 1 Thine earthly Sabbaths, Lord, we love, But there's a nobler rest above; To that our longing souls aspire, With cheerful hope and strong desire. 2 No more fatigue, no more distress, Nor sin nor death shall reach the place; No groans shall mingle with the songs That warble from immortal tongues. 3 No rude alarms of raging foes, No cares to break the long repose, No midnight shade, no clouded sun, But sacred, high, eternal noon. 4 O long-expected day, begin! Dawn on these realms of woe and sin; Fain would we leave this weary road, And sleep in death to rest with God.
