LYRICS
| 1. Golden breaks the dawn,
Comes the eastern sun,
Over lake and lawn
Set his course to run.
Birds above us fly,
Flowers bloom below,
Through the earth and sky
God’s great mercies flow.
2. Father God in heaven,
Hallowed be thy name,
Rule to thee be given,
Power and all acclaim.
Thee may we obey
As the hosts above,
Bread for us each day
Broken by the love.
3. Pardoned, as we share
In thy pardoning power,
Kept from Satan’s snare
In temptation’s hour:
So from sin set free,
Lord, we seek thy face,
Sons of liberty,
Heirs of saving grace.
4. Grace to all men shown,
All that grace must know,
God, their Father, own,
To their Father, own.
To their Father go.
Christ will come at last,
Even now so near,
Night will soon be past
And the dawn appear.
