[27 second introduction]
Awake, my soul, and with the sun
Thy daily stage of duty run
Shake off dull sloth and joyful rise
To pay thy morning sacrifice
[Interlude]
Lord, I my vows to Thee renew
Disperse my sins as morning dew
Guard my first spring of thought and will
And with Thyself my spirit fill
[Interlude]
Direct, control, suggest this day
All I design or do or say
That all my pow'rs with all their might
In Thy sole glory may unite
[Interlude]
Praise God from whom all blessings flow
Praise God, all creatues here below
Praise God above, ye heav'nly hosts
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost
