My lovely Jesus, while on earth,
Arose before 'twas day;
And to a solitary place
Departed, there to pray.
I'll do as did my blessed Lord—
His footsteps I will trace;
I love to meet him in the grove,
And view his smiling face.
Early I'll rise, and sing and pray,
While I the light enjoy;
May this bless'd work, from day to day.
My heart and tongue employ.
