O Lord of Life, Thy Quickening Voice

O Lord of life

Thy quick­en­ing voice

Awakes my morn­ing song!

In glad­some words I would re­joice

That I to Thee be­long.

I see Thy light

I feel thy wind;

The world it is Thy Word;

Whatever wakes my heart and mind

Thy pre­sence is

my Lord.

Therefore I choose my high­est part

And turn my face to Thee;

Therefore I stir my in­most heart

To wor­ship fer­vent­ly.
