Why should the Light return upon Our cold and darkened land?   When, into sleep, we drift and yawn, So thoughtless of His hand... We never think: "Someday it may Forever cease to shine!" We never thank – with thanks, befit – For Morning Mercies' rise. Why should the Light return upon Our cold and darkened land? But to awaken life at dawn As He, in Goodness, planned... We never, then, have an excuse To fall into a dream We never, then, can e’re accuse; His Glory’s, daily, seen. .

Why Should the Light Return?
Why should the Light return upon Our cold and darkened land?   When, into sleep, we drift and yawn, So thoughtless of His hand... We never think: "Someday it may Forever cease to shine!" We never thank – with thanks, befit – For Morning Mercies' rise. Why should the Light return upon Our cold and darkened land? But to awaken life at dawn As He, in Goodness, planned... We never, then, have an excuse To fall into a dream We never, then, can e’re accuse; His Glory’s, daily, seen. .
Lamentations 3:22-23: "The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; His mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness."
