“When Morning Gilds the Skies” ELW 853 and LBW 545, 546
Devotion
“May Jesus Christ be praised!” This line is repeated over and over in this hymn. For the sunrise and the sunset, “may Jesus Christ be praised!” For music and prayer, “may Jesus Christ be praised!” For all who around the world sing praise, may their song be, “Jesus Christ be praised!” Let all creation today and forever sing, “may Jesus Christ be praised!”
For all we have, for all we are, for all that is today or ever will be, Christ is the source, the giver of all. May Jesus Christ be praised.
Prayer
Lord Jesus Christ, praise to you for the gift of life. Amen.
