73 – May Jesus Christ Be Praised

When morning gilds the skies, My heart awaking cries: May Jesus Christ be praised! Alike at work and prayer To Jesus I repair: May Jesus Christ be praised!

2.

Does sadness fill my mind? A solace here I find, May Jesus Christ be praised! Or fades my earthly bliss?  My comfort still is this, May Jesus Christ be praised!

3.

In heavens eternal bliss The loveliest strain is this: May Jesus Christ be praised! The power of darkness fear When this sweet chant they hear: May Jesus Christ be praised!

4.

Be this, while life is mine, My canticle divine, May Jesus Christ be praised! Be this th' eternal song Thru all the ages long, May Jesus Christ be praised!
