When morning gilds the skies, My heart awakening cries (Bridges)

Verse 1

When morning gilds the skies, My heart awaking, cries, "May Jesus Christ be praised!" When evening shadows fall, Then sounds my vesper call: "May Jesus Christ be praised!"

Verse 2

When mirth for music longs, This is my song of songs: "May Jesus Christ be praised!" God’s holy house of prayer Hath none that can compare With "Jesus Christ be praised!"

Verse 3

Sing, sun and stars of space; Sing, all who see His face; Sing, "Jesus Christ be praised!" God’s whole creation o'er, Today and evermore, Sing, "Jesus Christ be praised!"
