1.

Lord, in the morning thou shalt hear

My voice ascending high:

To thee will I direct my prayer,

To thee lift up mine eye:

2.

Thou art a God, before whose sight

The wicked shall not stand;

Sinners shall ne'er be thy delight,

Nor dwell at thy right hand.

3.

But to thy house will I resort,

To taste thy mercies there;

I will frequent thy holy court,

And worship in thy fear.

4.

O may thy Spirit guide my feet

In ways of righteousness;

Make every path of duty straight,

And plain before my face.
