Hymn 019 – COME to me, Lord, when I first wake | C&S English Hymnary

1. COME to me, Lord, when I first wake, As the faint lights of morning break; Bid purest thoughts within me rise, Like crystal dew-drops to the skies. 2. Come to me in the sultry noon Or earths low communions will soon Of Thy dear face eclipse the light, And change my fairest day to night. 3. Come to me in the evening shade And if my heart from Thee hath stray'd Oh bring it back, and from afar Smile on me like Thine evening star. 4. Come to me in the midnight hour, When sleep with holds its balmy power Let my lone Spirit find her rest Like John, upon my Saviour's breast 5. Come to me through life‘s varied way And when its pulses cease to play Then, Saviour bid me come to Thee That where Thou art, Thy child may be AMEN
