As printed in The Church Hymnal (1941), no. 41 — the newest hymnal carrying it.
Verse 1
O Christ, with each returning morn Thine image to our hearts be borne; And may we ever clearly see Our dearest treasure, Lord, in Thee !
Verse 2
All hallowed be our walk this day; May meekness form our morning ray, And faithful love our noontide light, And hope our sunset, calm and bright.
Verse 3
May grace each idle thought control, And sanctify each wayward soul; May guile depart, and malice cease, And all within be joy and peace.
