A MORNING HYMN.
The morning reddens in the sky;
To Thee, Oh Lord, I pray,
As Thou has kept me through the
night,
* So keep me through the day.
I thank Thee for Thy gracious
gift*,
For darkness and for light
For health and home, for faith
' and friends,
Who make the dark days
bright.
Set Thou a watch before my lips
To guard my tongue from ill;
Give me a pure, an holy heart,
Which' Thou Thyself can’t fill.
t ’ •
*
Help me to speak some cheering
words,
To do some helpful deeds.
To scatter roses in the paths,
Where now grow only weeds.
And if today, in .sudden death,
On earth I close my eyes,
Oh Jesus, let me see Thy face
The first in Paradise.
