Ye Birds, Awake, For Dawn Is Near

Author: B. S. Ingemann Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #49 (1927) Meter: 9.9.11.15 First Line: Ye birds, awake, for the dawn is near Lyrics: 1 Ye birds, awake, for the dawn is near, Enliven the land with your singing; Sing praises to God from your loftiest sphere And thank Him for life and the light that the morning is bringing. 2 The swallows fly, by the church at play, While sparrows from dwellings are pouring; They all sing good morning and bid you good day: "God's speed to you all while we joyfully upward are soaring." 3 Their joyful songs to the Lord arise, He knows ev'ry bird under heaven; He watches their flight and He heareth their sighs, He gives them protection when tempests them widely have driven. 4 Thou watchest over Thy children, God, Thy child in Thy kindness rejoices; When leaving their perches the birds soar abroad, Thou hearest the praise of Thy children 'mongst millions of voices.
