"My voice You shall hear in the morning, O Lord;
In the morning I will direct it to You,
And I will look up."
Psalm 5:3
Sing along with me as I give glory to God during my
early Sunday morning walk:
"When Morning Gilds the Skies"
"When morning gilds the skies,
My heart awaking cries,
May Jesus Christ be praised:
Alike at work and prayer,
To Jesus I repair;
May Jesus Christ be praised!"
"To Thee, O God above,
I cry with glowing love,
May Jesus Christ be praised:
The song of sacred joy,
It never seems to cloy;
May Jesus Christ be praised!"
"Does sadness fill my mind,
A solace here I find;
May Jesus Christ be praised!
Or fades my earthly bliss,
My comfort still is this;
May Jesus Christ be praised!"
"Be this, while life is mine,
My canticle divine;
May Jesus Christ be praised:
Be this th' eternal song,
Through all the ages long:
May Jesus Christ be praised!"
Amen.
Edward Caswall, 1814-1878 ~ Joseph Barnby, 1838-1896

I love that hymn, and I sang it as I read your post. Your photography beautifully illustrates. I so enjoy posts like this!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Dianna. I so love the old hymns, and we don't get to sing them much anymore in church, so I sing them in my own time of worship as often as I can. I see so many reasons to break out in song as I walk through the woods or take a ride down the road...I can't hold it in! "May Jesus Christ be praised!"
