The winged herald of the day Proclaims the morn's approaching ray: And Christ the Lord our souls excites, And so to endless life invites. 2. Take up thy bed, to each He cries, Who sick or wrapped in slumber lies; And chaste and just and sober stand And watch: My coming is at at hand. 3. With earnest cry, with tearful care, Call we the Lord to hear our prayer; While supplication, pure and deep, Forbids each chastened heart to sleep. 4. Do Thou, O Christ, our slumber wake: Do Thou the chains of darkness break; Purge Thou our former sins away, And in our souls new light display. 5. All laud to God the Father be, All praise, eternal Son, to Thee; All glory, as is ever meet, To God the holy Paraclete. Browse Carols: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z #
