Let Songs of Praise Arise

Let songs of praise arise

To God at ear­ly morn

When gold­en beams from east­ern skies

The mount­ain peaks adorn.

When plum­aged song­sters raise

Their var­ied notes of joy

When blos­soms breathe their frag­rant praise

Let praise our tongues em­ploy.

At noon­tide

too

O Lord

Thy praise shall be our theme

When floods of burn­ing light are poured

O’er mount­ain

vale and stream.

At even­ing’s star­lit hour

Still be His praise ex­pressed

When count­less stars of light

His pow­er and watch­ful love at­test.
