When Morning Gilds the Skies

Lyrics to ‘When Morning Gilds the Skies’

1. When morning gilds the skies
my heart awakening cries: 
May Jesus Christ be praised! 
Alike at work and prayer,
to Jesus I repair: 
May Jesus Christ be praised! 

2. The night becomes as day
when from the heart we say: 
May Jesus Christ be praised! 
The powers of darkness fear
when this sweet chant they hear: 
May Jesus Christ be praised! 

3. Let all the earth around
ring joyous with the sound: 
May Jesus Christ be praised! 
In heaven’s eternal bliss
the loveliest strain is this:
May Jesus Christ be praised! 

4. Be this, while life is mine,
my canticle divine:
May Jesus Christ be praised! 
Be this th’ eternal song
through all the ages long: 
May Jesus Christ be praised!
