Morning Praise.

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 th' 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.

Bp. Ken, 1709.
