My Trembling Soul (For Joy)

So now again with day I wake New mercy from my maker to take And for your love to feel my ache And beg his mercy not forsake My trembling soul for you Down on my knees I kneel to pray Rinse anew by the promise of day My lips linger that I should say Lord, prosper now your gem of clay My trembling soul bids you I rise to see the landscape green So sweetly dressed in the sun's bright sheen But saw your face there hang between Earth and sky, like a shining queen My trembling soul greets you Heaven has God, and earth has you My soul, a flower, has its dew And love its binding work to do For God's greatest gift ... so like you Trembles still my soul, to joy for you
