A New Song for Morning and Evening

Isaac Watts (1709) • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 3

Verse 1

My God, how endless is your love! Your gifts are every evening new, and morning mercies from above gently distil, like earthly dew.

Verse 2

You spread the curtains of the night, great Guardian of my sleeping hours; your sovereign Word restores the light, and quickens all my drowsy powers.

Verse 3

I yield my powers to your command; to you I consecrate my days: perpetual blessings from your hand demand perpetual songs of praise.
