MORNING HYMN 1 FEBRUARY

I have a day off work today and as I type this the sun is shining brightly which reminded me of this hymn

Awake, awake to love and work,
The lark is in the sky,
The fields are wet with diamond dew,
The worlds awake to cry
Their blessings on the Lord of Life
As He goes meekly by.

Come, let thy voice be one with theirs,
Shout with their shout of praise;
See how the giant sun soars up 
Great lord of years and days!
So let the love of Jesus come,
And set thy soul ablaze.

To give and give, and give again,
What God hath given thee;
To spend thy self nor count the cost
To serve right gloriously
The God who gave all worlds that are,
And all that are to be.

Geoffrey Studdert-Kennedy ( Methodist Hymn Book)
