FRAMER of the earth and skyA
Ruler of the day and nightB
With a glad varietyC
Tempering all and making lightB
-
Gleams upon our dark path flingingD
Cutting short each night begunE
Hark for chanticleer is singingD
Hark he chides the lingering sunE
-
And the morning star repliesF
And lets loose the imprison'd dayG
And the godless bandit fliesF
From his haunt and from his preyG
-
Shrill it sounds the storm relentingD
Soothes the weary seaman's earsH
Once it wrought a great repentingD
In that flood of Peter's tearsI
-
Rouse we let the blithesome cryA
Of that bird our hearts awakenE
Chide the slumberers as they lieA
And arrest the sin o'ertakenE
-
Hope and health are in his strainE
To the fearful and the ailingD
Murder sheathes his blade profaneE
Faith revives when faith was failingD
-
Jesu Master when we sinE
Turn on us Thy healing faceJ
It will melt the offence withinE
Into penitential graceJ
-
Beam on our bewilder'd mindK
Till its dreamy shadows fleeC
Stones cry out where Thou hast shinedK
Jesu musical with TheeC
-
To the Father and the SonE
And the Spirit who in HeavenE
Ever witness Three and OneE
Praise on Earth be ever givenE

John Henry Newman
