New every morning is the love

New every morning is the love
our waking and our rising prove:
through sleep and darkness safely brought,
restored to life and power and thought.

2. New mercies, each returning day,
surround your people as they pray:
new perils past, new sins forgiven,
new thoughts of God, new hopes of heaven.

3. If in our daily life our mind
be set to hallow all we find,
new treasures still, of countless price,
God will provide for sacrifice.

4. The trivial round, the common task,
will furnish all we ought to ask:
room to deny ourselves—a road
to bring us daily nearer God.

5. Prepare us, Lord, in your dear love
for perfect rest with you above,
and help us, this and every day,
to grow more like you as we pray.
