HYMNS OF THE EARLY CHURCH
Morning
Thine be the glory, God of Light,
With beauty decked the morn ascends,
Rise, thou glorious orb of day,
Up, up, my soul! with gladness rise,
The crimson blush of morning glows
The morn awakes; from eastern hills

From the hills the light is streaming,

Harvest
High on the throne of the Ancient of Days,
Ah, that blest abode above,
I sought the Lord at early morn,
Let a shining robe be mine,
I am alone, yet not alone,
Oh, the Cross, the Saviour dying,
I wandered sore distressed,
Once the Lord, for our salvation,
Close beside the heart that loves me
My soul doth wait on God,
The chariots of the Lord are strong,
O heavenly land beyond the sun!
There is no friend like Jesus,
When I heard the Saviour calling
I would not have a hand to guide
O Jesus, let me hear Thy voice,
Come, rest awhile; 'tis eventide--
We bless Thee, Lord, that Thou hast spread
Hark the voice of angels.
O, come in early morning,
