Hymn At Cock Crow	D
	-
Newly Translated Into English Verse By R Martin Pope	F
	-
Awake the shining day is born	E
The herald cock proclaims the morn	E
And Christ the soul's Awakener cries	B
Bidding us back to life arise	B
	-
Away the sluggard's bed away	L
The slumber of the soul's decay	L
Ye chaste and just and temperate	C
Watch I am standing at the gate	C
	-
After the sun hath risen red	C
'Tis late for men to scorn their bed	C
Unless a portion of the night	C
They seize for labours of the light	C
	-
Mark ye what time the dawn draws nigh	J
How 'neath the eaves the swallows cry	J
Know that by true similitude	C
Their notes our Judge's voice prelude	C
	-
When hid by shades of dark malign	E
On beds of softness we recline	E
They call us forth with music clear	D
Warning us that the day is near	D
	-
When breezes bright of orient morn	E
With rosy hues the heavens adorn	E
They cheer with hope of gladdening light	C
The hearts that spend in toil their might	C
	-
Though sleep be but a passing guest	C
'Tis type of death's perpetual rest	C
Our sins are as a ghastly night	C
And seal with slumbers deep our sight	C
	-
But from the wide roof of the sky	J
Christ's voice peals forth with urgent cry	J
Calling our sleep bound hearts to rise	B
And greet the dawn with wakeful eyes	B
	-
He bids us fear lest sensual ease	B
Unto life's end the spirit seize	B
And in the tomb of shame us bind	C
Till we are to the true light blind	C
	-
'Tis said that baleful spirits roam	A
Abroad beneath the dark's vast dome	A
But when the cock crows take their flight	C
Sudden dispersed in sore affright	C
	-
For the foul votaries of the night	C
Abhor the coming of the light	C
And shamed before salvation's grace	B
The hosts of darkness hide their face	B
	-
They know the cock doth prophesy	B
Of Hope's long promised morning sky	J
When comes the Majesty Divine	E
Upon awakened worlds to shine	E
	-
The Lord to Peter once foretold	C
What meaning that shrill strain should hold	C
How he before cock crow would lie	J
And thrice his Master dear deny	J
	-
For 'tis a law that sin is done	E
Before the herald of the sun	E
To humankind the dawn proclaims	B
And with his cry the sinner shames	B
	-
Then wept he bitter tears aghast	C
That from his lips the words had passed	C
Though guileless he his soul possessed	C
And faith still reigned within his breast	C
	-
Nor ever reckless word he said	C
Thereafter by his tongue betrayed	C
But at the cock's familiar cry	J
Humbled he turned from vanity	C
	-
Therefore it is we hold to day	C
That as the world in stillness lay	C
What hour the cock doth greet the skies	B
Christ from deep Hades did arise	B
	-
Lo then the bands of death were burst	C
Shattered the sway of hell accurst	C
Then did the Day's superior might	C
Swiftly dispel the hosts of Night	C
	-
Now let base deeds to silence fall	D
Black thoughts be stilled beyond recall	D
Now let sin's opiate spell retire	D
To that deep sleep it doth inspire	D
	-
For all the hours that still remain	E
Until the dark his goal attain	E
Alert for duty's stern command	C
Let every soul a sentry stand	C
	-
With sober prayer on Jesus call	D
Let tears with our strong crying fall	D
Sleep cannot on the pure soul steal	D
That supplicates with fervent zeal	D
	-
Too long did dull oblivion cloud	C
Our motions and our senses shroud	C
Lulled by her numbing touch we stray	C
In dreamland's ineffectual way	C
	-
Bound by the dazzling world's soft chain	E
'Tis false and fleeting gauds we gain	E
Like those who in deep slumbers lie	J
Let us awake the truth is nigh	J
	-
Gold honours pleasure wealth and ease	B
And all the joys that mortals please	B
Joys with a fatal glamour fraught	C
When morning comes lo all are nought	C
	-
But thou O Christ put sleep to flight	C
And break the iron bands of night	C
Free us from burden of past sin	E
And shed Thy morning rays within	E
