| Ruler of the day and night | B |
| With a glad variety | C |
| Tempering all and making light | B |
| - | |
| Gleams upon our dark path flinging | D |
| Cutting short each night begun | E |
| Hark for chanticleer is singing | D |
| Hark he chides the lingering sun | E |

| And the morning star replies | F |
| And lets loose the imprison'd day | G |
| And the godless bandit flies | F |
| From his haunt and from his prey | G |

| Shrill it sounds the storm relenting | D |
| Soothes the weary seaman's ears | H |
| Once it wrought a great repenting | D |
| In that flood of Peter's tears | I |

| Rouse we let the blithesome cry | A |
| Of that bird our hearts awaken | E |
| Chide the slumberers as they lie | A |
| And arrest the sin o'ertaken | E |

| Hope and health are in his strain | E |
| To the fearful and the ailing | D |
| Murder sheathes his blade profane | E |
| Faith revives when faith was failing | D |

| Jesu Master when we sin | E |
| Turn on us Thy healing face | J |
| It will melt the offence within | E |
| Into penitential grace | J |

| Beam on our bewilder'd mind | K |
| Till its dreamy shadows flee | C |
| Stones cry out where Thou hast shined | K |
| Jesu musical with Thee | C |
| - | |
| To the Father and the Son | E |
| And the Spirit who in Heaven | E |
| Ever witness Three and One | E |
| Praise on Earth be ever given | E |
