The Radiant Sun Shines in the Skies

The ra­di­ant sun shines in the skies;

With joy from sleep we now arise.

All praise to God

who thro’ this night

Hath kept us from the dev­il’s might.

Lord Je­sus Christ

guide us this day;

Keep sin and shame far from our way.

Thy guard­ian an­gels to us send

And let them to our wants at­tend.

Direct our hearts to do Thy will

And for Thy Word true love in­still

That we may do what­e’er is right

And ev­er pleas­ing in Thy sight.

Crown all our la­bors with suc­cess

Each one in his own call­ing bless.

May all we do or think or say

Exalt and praise Thee

Lord

this day!
