[Recordings forthcoming, Lord willing]
When morning gilds the skies, My heart awaking cries:
May Jesus Christ be praised;
Alike at work or prayer To Jesus I repair:
May Jesus Christ be praised.
Does sadness fill my mind, A solace here I find:
May Jesus Christ be praised;
Or fades my earthly bliss, My comfort still is this:
May Jesus Christ be praised.
In heaven's eternal bliss The loveliest strain is this,
May Jesus Christ be praised;
The powers of darkness fear, When this sweet chant they hear:
May Jesus Christ be praised.
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.
