Lauds by George Dyson Lyrics

Ye that have spent the silent night
In sleep and quiet rest
And joy to see the (cheerful) light
That riseth in the east;
Now lift your hearts, your voices raise
Your morning tribute bring
And pay a grateful song of praise
To Heaven's Almighty King

For as this gloomy night did last
But for a little space;
As heavenly day, (now night is past)
Doth show his pleasant face;
So let us hope, when faith and love
Their work on earth have done
God's blessed face to see above
Heaven's better, brighter sun
