Hymn 198
L.M.
1. Awake, my soul, and with the sun
Thy daily course of duty run;
Shake off dull sloth, and early rise
To pay thy morning sacrifice.
2. Redeem thy mis-spent time that's past;
Live this day, as if 'twere thy last;
T' improve thy talents take due care;
'Gainst the great day thyself prepare.
3. Let all thy converse be sincere,
Thy conscience as the noon-day clear:
Think how th' all-seeing God, thy ways,
And all thy secret thoughts surveys.
4. Wake, and lift up thyself, my heart,
And with the angels bear thy part;
Who all night long unwearied sing,
Glory to thee, Eternal King.
5. I wake, I wake, ye heav'nly choir;
May your devotion me inspire;
That I like you my age may spend,
Like you may on my God attend.
6. May I like you in God delight,
Have all day long my God in sight;
Perform like you my Maker's will;
I! may I never more do ill.
7. Glory to thee, who safe has kept,
And hast refreshed me while I slept:
Grant, Lord, when I from death shall wake,
I may of endless life partake.
8. Lord, I my vows to thee renew;
Scatter my sins as morning dew;
Guard my first spring of thought and will,
And with thyself my spirit fill.
9. Direct, control, suggest this day,
All I design, or do, or say,
That all my pow'rs, with all their mite,
In thy sole glory may unite.
10. Praise God, from whom all blessings flow,
Praise him, all creatures here below:
Praise him above, y' angelic host;
Praise Father Son, and Holy Ghost.
