1. As the sun doth daily rise, brightening all the morning skies, so to thee with one accord lift we up our hearts, O Lord.

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.

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.

4. Quickened by the Spirit's grace all thy holy will to trace while we daily search thy Word, wisdom true impart, O Lord.

5. Praise we, with the heavenly host, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost; thee would we with one accord praise and magnify, O Lord.
