Latter Day Saints' Messenger and Advocate/Volume 1/Number 10/Morning hymn

Morning Hymn.

TUNE—Chinese Chant.

Awake! for the morning is come:

Rejoice in the Lord, and trust in his mercy,

And pray unto him, in meekness and love,

For knowledge and health, and all his good

blessings,

To comfort and happily home.

O Lord, thou good Shepherd and King

We want, through the day, to feed in thy

pastures,

And feast on thy bounteous goodness and

grace:

O lead us along the banks of still waters,

To gladden our hearts and to sing.

Lord turn all our hearts unto thee,

To walk in the paths of virtue and wisdom,

To live in the bonds of union and peace,

And glorify thee on earth as in heaven:

O keep us unspotted and free!

O thou art the staff and the rod,

On which we can lean in ev'ry condition,

In youth and in age, or the valley of death

For raiment and food, for joy and for comfort,

So praise ye the Lord, who is God. P.
