MY PRAYER, by                    
First Line: When morn triumphant breaks
Last Line: Behold my christ -- and king!
Subject(s): Jesus Christ


When morn triumphant breaks,
My slumbering soul awakes
And cries "Thou art my King!"

By noonday's brilliant sun
I praise Thee, Heavenly One --
And joyful carols sing.

At sunset's rosy glow
My heart sings soft and low
"Jesus, my life I bring."

When day has passed away,
I kneel at night and pray --
"Keep me beneath Thy wing."

When life's short stay is o'er
May I forevermore
Behold my Christ -- and King!
