My opening eyes with rapture see
Author: Elizabeth Scott Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #540 (1886) Topics: The Christian Family Devotion Lyrics: 1 My opening eyes with rapture see
The light of thy returning day;
My thoughts, O God, ascend to thee
While thus my early vows I pay.
2 I yield my heart to thee alone,
Nor would receive another guest:
Eternal King, erect thy throne,
And reign sole monarch in my breast.
3 O, bid this trifling world retire,
And drive each carnal thought away;
Nor let me feel one vain desire,
One sinful thought, through all the day.
4 Then, to thy courts when I repair,
My soul shall rise on joyful wing,
The wonders of thy love declare,
And join the strains which angels sing. Tune Title: HEBRON

Sun of my soul, O Saviour dear!
Author: John Keble Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #542 (1886) Topics: The Christian Family Devotion Lyrics: 1 Sun of my soul, O Saviour dear!
It is not night if thou be near:
O may no earth-born cloud arise
To hide thee from thy servant's eyes.
2 When soft the dews of kindly sleep
My weary eyelids gently steep,
Be my last thought how sweet to rest
Forever on my Saviour's breast!
3 Abide with me from morn till eve,
For without thee I cannot live;
Abide with me when night is nigh,
For without thee I dare not die.
4 Be near and bless me when I wake,
Ere through the world my way I take
Till in the ocean of thy love
I lose myself in heaven above. Tune Title: HURSLEY

For all the blessings of the light;
Keep me, O mighty King of kings,
Beneath the shadow of thy wings,
2 Forgive me, Lord, for thy dear Son,
The ills which I this day have done;
That with the world, myself, and thee,
I, ere I sleep, at peace may be.
3 Be thou my guardian while I sleep;
Thy watchful station near me keep;
My heart with love celestial fill,
And guard me from the approach of ill.
4 Lord, let my heart forever share
The bliss of thy paternal care;
'Tis heaven on earth, 'tis heaven above,
To see thy face and sing thy love.
5 Teach me this fleeting life to live,
So that the grave no dread shall give;
Teach me to die, so that I may
With joy behold the Judgment day. Tune Title: HURSLEY

Thy gifts are every evening new;
And morning mercies from above,
Gently distill like early dew.
2 Thou spread'st the curtains of the night,
Great Guardian of my sleeping hours;
Thy sovereign word restores the light,
And quickens all my drowsy powers.
3 I yield myself to thy command;
To thee I consecrate my days;
Perpetual blessings from thy hand
Demand perpetual songs of praise. Tune Title: HURSLEY
My God, how endless is thy love!
Lord, in the morning thou shalt hear
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #546 (1886) Topics: The Christian Family Devotion Lyrics: 1 Lord, in the morning thou shalt hear
My voice ascending high;
To thee will I direct my prayer,
To thee lift up mine eye,
2 Up to the hills where Christ is gone
To plead for all his saints,
Presenting at his Father's throne
Our songs and our complaints.
3 O may thy Spirit guide my feet
In ways of righteousness!
Make every path of duty straight
And plain before my face.
4 The men that love and fear thy name
Shall see their hopes fulfilled;
The mighty God will compass them
With favor as a shield. Tune Title: MEAR
Lord, in the morning thou shalt hear
Lord of my life, O may thy praise
Author: Anne Steele Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #547 (1886) Topics: The Christian Family Devotion Lyrics: 1 Lord of my life, O may thy praise
Employ my noblest powers,
Whose goodness lengthens out my days,
And fills the circling hours.
2 While many spent the night in sighs,
And restless pains and woes,
In gentle sleep I closed my eyes,
And undisturbed repose.
3 O let the same parental care
My waking hours attend;
From every danger, every snare,
My trembling steps defend:
4 Smile on my moments as they roll,
And guide my future days;
And let thy goodness fill my soul
With gratitude and praise. Tune Title: MEAR
Lord of my life, O may thy praise
How can we see the children, Lord
Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #549 (1886) Topics: The Christian Family Devotion Lyrics: 1 How can we see the children, Lord,
Whom thou in love hast given,
Remain regardless of thy word,
Without a hope of heaven?
2 Lord, hear the parents' earnest cry,
And save our children dear;
Now send thy Spirit from on high,
And fill them with thy fear.
3 O make them love thy holy law,
And joyful walk therein;
Their hearts to new obedience draw;
Save them from every sin. Tune Title: MEAR
How can we see the children, Lord
See how the morning sun
Author: Elizabeth Scott Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #555 (1886) Topics: The Christian Family Devotion Lyrics: 1 See how the morning sun
Pursues his shining way,
And wide proclaims his Maker's praise
With every brightening ray.
2 Thus would my rising soul
Its heavenly Parent sing,
And to its great original
The humble tribute bring.
3 Serene I laid me down
Beneath his guardian care;
I slept, and I awoke, and found
My kind Preserver near.
4 My life I would anew
Devote, O Lord, to thee;
And in thy kingdom I would spend
A bright eternity. Tune Title: VESPER
See how the morning sun
