Begin the day with God!

|
| 1. | Begin the day with God! |
| | He is thy Sun and Day! |
| | His is the radiance of thy dawn; |
| | To Him address thy lay. |
| 2. | Sing a new song at morn! |
| | Join the glad woods and hills; |
| | Join the fresh winds and seas and plains, |
| | Join the bright flowers and rills. |
| 3. | Sing thy first song to God! |
| | Not to thy fellow men; |
| | Not to the creatures of His hand, |
| | But to the glorious One. |
| 4. | Take thy first walk with God! |
| | Let Him go forth with thee; |
| | By stream, or sea, or mountain path, |
| | Seek still His company. |
| 5. | Thy first transaction be |
| | With God Himself above; |
| | So shall thy business prosper well |
| | And all the day be love. |
