The morning of a Lord's day | C |

Early my God without delay | C |
I haste to seek thy face | D |
My thirsty spirit faints away | C |
Without thy cheering grace | D |

So pilgrims on the scorching sand | E |
Beneath a burning sky | F |
Long for a cooling stream at hand | E |
And they must drink or die | F |

I've seen thy glory and thy power | G |
Through all thy temple shine | H |
My God repeat that heav'nly hour | G |
That vision so divine | H |

Not all the blessings of a feast | I |
Can please my soul so well | J |
As when thy richer grace I taste | K |
And in thy presence dwell | J |

Not life itself with all her joys | L |
Can my best passions move | M |
Or raise so high my cheerful voice | N |
As thy forgiving love | O |

Thus till my last expiring day | C |
I'll bless my God and King | P |
Thus will I lift my hands to pray | C |
And tune my lips to sing | P |
