<p>Sweetly the holy hymn<br>
Breaks on the morning air;<br>
Before the world with smoke is dim<br>
We meet to offer prayer.</p>
<p>While flowers are wet with dews,<br>
Dew of our souls, descend:<br>
Ere yet the sun the day renews,<br>
O Lord, Thy Spirit send.</p>
<p>Upon the battlefield,<br>
Before the fight begins,<br>
We seek, O Lord, Thy sheltering shield,<br>
To guard us from our sins.</p>
<p>Ere yet our vessel sails<br>
Upon the stream of day<br>
We plead, O Lord, for heavenly gales<br>
To speed us on our way!</p>
<p>On the lone mountain side,<br>
Before the morning&#8217;s light,<br>
The Man of sorrows wept and cried,<br>
And rose refreshed with might.</p>
<p>Oh, hear us then, for we<br>
Are very weak and frail,<br>
We make the Savior&#8217;s Name our plea,<br>
And surely must prevail.</p>
