Wings of Love 6s

God of the first grey dawn!
To thee my vows I raise,
And on the wings of love
Send up my songs of praise.
I bless thee for the sleep
That sooth'd my weary frame;
The vigil thou didst keep,
The visions bright that came.

God of the sun's first ray!
O, let its influence be
A magnet, day by day,
To draw me unto thee!
I bless thee for that light,
The sun that fills the soul,
Whose beams divinely bright
Can purify the whole.

God of the glowing noon!
My pray'r shall still ascend,
And crave a heav'nly boon
Of thee, my kindest friend.
I seek that better part
To animate this clod;
I would be pure in heart,
That I may see my God.
