Lyrics

Come to the Lord now, in the ear­ly morn!
Thank Him for ev­ery bless­ing you re­ceive,
Ask for His mer­cies for this bright new day;
Trust ev­ery step you take in life’s long way,
For He’s your friend who keeps you till the end!

Come to the Lord now, life is up and on!
Thank Him for lips and pen to praise His name,
Ask for His grace to deal with un­be­lief;
Trust Him to turn the ev­il in­to good,
For He’s your friend who keeps you till the end!

Come to the Lord now, night ad­vanc­es soon!
Thank Him for ev­ery race that you have won,
Ask for His par­don when you go as­tray;
Trust Him to keep you safe and sound this night
For He’s your friend who keeps you till the end!
