¶Lyrics / Text

The light of the morning is bright in the sky, The birds sing their sweet morning lay: With night let the shadows of slumber pass by, Arouse and bid welcome to day; With night let the shadows of slumber pass by; Arouse and bid welcome, bid welcome to day. How bright is morn’s rising, how brilliant the light, While spreading o’er mountain and sky! Come forth, oh, come forth from your cells of the night, To meadow and hilltop away; Come forth, oh, come forth from your cells of the night; To meadow and hilltop away we will hie.
