Sing a new song at morn! Join the glad woods and hills; Join the fresh winds and seas and plains, Join the bright flowers and rills.

Take thy first walk with God! Let Him go forth with thee; By stream, or sea, or mountain path, Seek still His company.

Thy first transaction be With God Himself above; So shall thy business prosper well And all the day be love.
