See the Morning Sun Ascending

“See the Morning Sun Ascending”

Tune: Unser Herrscher

See the morning sun ascending, radiant in the eastern sky;
hear the angel voices blending in their praise to God on high!
Alleluia! Alleluia! Glory be to God on high!

So may we, in lowly station, join the choristers above;
singing with the whole creation, praising God for his great love.
Alleluia! Alleluia! Glory be to God above!

For his loving-kindness ever shed upon our earthly way;
for his mercy, ceasing never, for his blessing day by day.
Alleluia! Alleluia! Glory be to God alway!

“Wisdom, honor, pow’r, and blessing!” with the angelic host we cry;
round thy throne, thy Name confessing, Lord, we would to thee draw nigh.
Alleluia! Alleluia! Glory be to God on high!
Amen.
