Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFFAAGGHHII JJGGKKLLMMLLAALLLLNN OOPP| See the star that leads the day | A |
| Rising shoots a golden ray | A |
| To make the shades of darkness go | B |
| From heaven above and earth below | B |
| And warn us early with the sight | C |
| To leave the beds of silent night | C |
| From a heart sincere and sound | D |
| From its very deepest ground | D |
| Send devotion up on high | E |
| Wing'd with heat to reach the sky | E |
| See the time for sleep has run | F |
| Rise before or with the sun | F |
| Lift thine hands and humbly pray | A |
| The fountain of eternal day | A |
| That as the light serenely fair | G |
| Illustrates all the tracts of air | G |
| The sacred spirit so may rest | H |
| With quick'ning beams upon thy breast | H |
| And kindly clean it all within | I |
| From darker blemishes of sin | I |
| And shine with grace until we view | J |
| The realm it gilds with glory too | J |
| See the day that dawns in air | G |
| Brings along its toil and care | G |
| From the lap of night it springs | K |
| With heaps of business on its wings | K |
| Prepare to meet them in a mind | L |
| That bows submissively resign'd | L |
| That would to works appointed fall | M |
| And knows that God has order'd all | M |
| And whether with a small repast | L |
| We break our sober morning fast | L |
| Or in our thoughts and houses lay | A |
| The future methods of the day | A |
| Or early walk abroad to meet | L |
| Our business with industrious feet | L |
| Whate'er we think whate'er we do | L |
| His glory still be kept in view | L |
| O Giver of eternal bliss | N |
| Heavenly Father grant me this | N |
| Grant it all as well as me | O |
| All whose hearts are fix'd on Thee | O |
| Who revere Thy Son above | P |
| Who Thy sacred Spirit love | P |
