{{Vs|1}} Hail, thou bright and sacred morn, | |||
Risen with gladness in thy beams! | |||
Light, which not of earth is born, | |||
From thy dawn in glory streams; | |||
Airs of heaven are breathed around, | |||
And each place is holy ground. | |||
{{Vs|2}} Great Creator, who this day | |||
From Thy perfect work didst rest, | |||
By the souls that own Thy sway | |||
Hallowed by its hours and blest; | |||
Cares of earth aside be thrown, | |||
This day given to heaven alone. | |||
{{mdl}} | |||
{{Vs|3}} Saviour, who this day didst break | |||
The dark prison of the tomb, | |||
Bid my slumbering soul awake, | |||
Shine through all its sin and gloom; | |||
Let me, from my bonds set free, | |||
Rise from sin, and live to Thee. | |||
{{Vs|4}} Blessed Spirit, Comforter, | |||
Sent this day from Christ on high, | |||
Lord, on me Thy gifts confer, | |||
Cleanse, illumine, sanctify; | |||
All Thine influence shed abroad; | |||
Lead me to the truth of God. | |||
