The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book ‎#546

546. Lord, in the morning thou shalt hear

1 Lord, in the morning thou shalt hear
My voice ascending high;
To thee will I direct my prayer,
To thee lift up mine eye,

2 Up to the hills where Christ is gone
To plead for all his saints,
Presenting at his Father's throne
Our songs and our complaints.

3 O may thy Spirit guide my feet
In ways of righteousness!
Make every path of duty straight
And plain before my face.

4 The men that love and fear thy name
Shall see their hopes fulfilled;
The mighty God will compass them
With favor as a shield.
