When I Awake from Slumber (EN 1853)

EN 1853 When I Awake from Slumber

Ps.139.18

Versi Version 1

1

When I awake from slumber

To greet the golden day,

Then teach me, Lord, to number

Its hours in wisdom’s way.

2

When clouds at dawn are gleaming,

Lift up mine answering eyes

To where Thy light is streaming

On faith’s high enterprise.

3

While all the heights are calling

And skies are blithe and blue,

Keep Thou my feet from falling,

My heart’s ambitions true.

4

Let simple pleasures cheer me

When every goal seems far;

Reveal Thyself as near me

As life and duty are.

5

And when the light is fading,

If dreams have not come true,

Yet breathe Thy peace pervading

The twilight through and through.

6

When life’s long day is ended

And shadows closer creep,

Lord, let me feel befriended

Before I go to sleep.
