Come, O Lord, Like Morning Sunlight

Come, O Lord, like morning sunlight,

Making all life new and free;

For the daily task and challenge

May we rise renewed in Thee.

Come, O Lord, like ocean flood-tides,

Flowing inland from the sea;

As the waters fill the shallows,

May our souls be filled with Thee.

Come, O Lord, like mountain breezes,

Freshening life in vale and lea;

In the heat and stress of duty

May our souls find strength in Thee.

Come, O Lord, like evening twilight,

Bringing peace on land and sea;

At the radiant close of labor

May our souls find rest in Thee.
