When Morning Gilds the Skies

My comfort still is this: may Jesus Christ be praised! 3 Let earth's wide circle round in joyful notes resound: may Jesus Christ be praised! Let air and sea and sky from depth to height reply: may Jesus Christ be praised! 4 Be this, while life is mine, my canticle divine: may Jesus Christ be praised! Be this the eternal song through all the ages long: may Jesus Christ be praised!

Surpassing thought and fantasy that God, the Son of God, should take our mortal form for mortals' sake. 2 For us baptized, for us he bore his holy fast, and hungered sore; for us temptations sharp he knew; for us the tempter overthrew. 3 For us he prayed, for us he taught, for us the lost with love he sought, by words, and signs, and actions, he brought health and hope to set us free. 4 For us to wicked men betrayed, scourged, mocked, in crown of thorns arrayed, he bore the shameful cross and death; for us at length gave up his breath. 5 For us he rose from death again, for us he went on high to reign, for us he sent his Spirit here to guide, to strengthen, and to cheer. 6 To him whose boundless love has won salvation for us through his Son, to God the Father, glory be both now and through eternity.
