     Thy conscience asthe montide clear,

     Think how all-seeing God thy ways 

     And all thy secret thoughts surveys.

     Let thy own light too thers shine, 

     Reflect all Heaven‘s propitious rays 

     ln ardent love and cheerful praise.

     And with the angels bear thy pan,

     Who all night long unwearied sing 

     High praise to the eternal King.


6.  I wake, I wake, ye heavenly choir

     May your devotion me inspire

     That I, like you my age may spend, 

     Like you may on my God attend.  Amen
