- Hymn 43
Verse 1
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!
Verse 1
Whene’er the sweet church
bell peals over hill and dell,
May Jesus Christ praised!
O hark to what it sings,
as joyously it rings,
May Jesus Christ be praised!
Verse 2
The night becomes as day
when from the heart we say:
May Jesus Christ be praised!
The powers of darkness fear
when this sweet chant they hear:
May Jesus Christ be praised!
Verse 3
Ye nations of mankind,
in this your concord find,
May Jesus Christ praised!
Let all the earth around
ring joyous with the sound,
May Jesus Christ praised!
Verse 4
In heaven’s eternal bliss
the loveliest strain is this,
May Jesus Christ praised!
Let earth, and sea and sky
from depth to height reply,
May Jesus Christ praised!
Verse 5
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!
