May Jesus Christ be Praised ( a fulfilled rev. by CHS )

When morning guilds the sky, our hearts awaking cry;
May Jesus Christ be praised! Alike at work and prayer
To Jesus we repair: May Jesus Christ be praised!

Does sadness fill our minds? Great solace here we find;
May Jesus Christ be praised! Or fades our earthly bliss?
Our comfort still is this; may Jesus Christ be praised!

In heav'n's eternal bliss, the loveliest strain is this;
May Jesus Christ be praised! The pow'rs of darkness fear,
When this sweet chant they hear; May Jesus Christ be praised!

Be this, since Life is ours, our hymn of greatest power,
May Jesus Christ be praised! Be this th' eternal song
Throughout the age, tho' long; May Jesus Christ be praised!
