As the Sun Doth Daily Rise

Horatio Nelson (1864) • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 51:13

Verse 1

As the sun doth daily rise, Bright'ning all the morning skies, So to Thee with one accord Lift we up our hearts, O Lord!

Verse 2

Day by day provide us food, For from Thee come all things good; Strength unto our souls afford From Thy living Bread, O Lord!

Verse 3

Be our guard in sin and strife; Be the leader of our life; Lest from Thee we stray abroad, Stay our wayward feet, O Lord!

Verse 4

Quickened by the Spirit's grace All Thy holy will to trace While we daily search Thy Word, Wisdom true impart, O Lord!

Verse 5

Praise we, with the heavn'ly host, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost; Thee would we with one accord Praise and magnify, O Lord! Amen.
