When Morning Gilds the Skies

Author: Edward Caswall Meter: 6.6.6 D Appears in 699 hymnals 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 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! 3 Let earth's wide circle round In joyful notes resound: May Jesus Christ be praised! Let air and sea and sky From depth to height reply: May Jesus Christ be praised! 4 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!

When morning gilds the skies

Author: Anon.; Robert Bridges; Edward Caswall Appears in 18 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When morning gilds the skies, My heart awaking, cries: May Jesus Christ be praised.

God’s holy house of prayer Hath none that can compare With: May Jesus Christ be praised. 3 No lovelier antiphon In all high heaven is known Than: Jesus Christ be praised. There to th'eternal Word The eternal psalm is heard: May Jesus Christ be praised. 4 Ye nations of mankind, In this your concord find: May Jesus Christ be praised. Let all the earth around Ring joyous with the sound: May Jesus Christ be praised. 5 Sing, sun and stars of space, Sing, ye that see His face, Sing: Jesus Christ be praised. God’s whole creation o'er, Both aye and evermore Shall Jesus Christ be praised. Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Prayer, Praise and Thanksgiving Used With Tune: LAUDES DOMINI

Oh, joy all joys above, To praise the children's King! 2 The angels sing on high Thy glory through the sky, And then to earth they wing; To guard us while we sleep, And as their watch they keep, To praise the children's King. 3 Oh, may we, while we live, Such willing service give, A holy offering! And still Thy glory show By deeds of love below, To praise the children's King. 4 And may our hearts aspire To join the heavenly choir, Whose strains forever ring; And learn on earth their hymn, The song of seraphim To praise the children's King. 5 O Light of Light, to Thee Let earth and sky and sea Eternal homage bring; And grant us through Thy love, Before Thy throne above, To praise the children's King. Amen. Topics: For Children Used With Tune: [With gladsome hearts we come]
