E1:My heart its in_cense burn_ing,/I'll of_fer thanks and praise,/Now, with re_turn of morn_ing,/And through all fu_ture days;/I'll praise Thee on Thy throne,/Great Source of ev'_ry bles_sing,/My song to Thee ad_dres_sing/Through Christ, Thy on_ly Son.
E2:Thy mer_cy claims my prai_ses!/This kept me through the night;/And now from sleep it rai_ses,/To greet the dawn_ing light./This, too, it is that hath/My ma_ny sins for_gi_ven,/Which, in the face of hea_ven,/So oft pro_voked Thy wrath.
E3:In mer_cy still di_rect me/Through_out the com_ing day:/From Sa_tan's wiles pro_tect me,/From sin, and from dis_may:/De_fend from fire and storm,/From want and ev'_ry weak_ness,/From sor_rows and from sick_ness,/From sud_den death's a_larm.
E4:Let an_gels keep their sta_tions,/Nor cease their guard of me,/A_vert_ing all temp_ta_tions/Which draw my soul from Thee!/Thy shield hold Thou a_bove!/Then no_thing shall dis_tress me,/To du_ty I'll ad_dress me,/Re_joic_ing in Thy love./
