  1. 1Still, still with Thee, when purple morning breaketh,
  2. When the bird waketh, and the shadows flee,
  3. Fairer than morning, lovelier than daylight,
  4. Dawns the sweet consciousness, I am with Thee.
  5. 2Alone with Thee, amid the mystic shadows,
  6. The solemn hush of nature newly born;
  7. Alone with Thee in breathless adoration,
  8. In the calm dew and freshness of the morn.
  9. 3As in the dawning o'er the waveless ocean,
  10. The image of the morning-star doth rest,
  11. So in the stillness, Thou beholdest only
  12. Thine image in the waters of my breast.
  13. 4Still, still with Thee! As to each newborn morning
  14. A fresh and solemn splendour still is given,
  15. So does this blessed consciousness, awaking,
  16. Breathe each day nearness unto Thee and heaven.
  17. 5When sinks the soul, subdued by toil, to slumber,
  18. Its closing eyes look up to Thee in prayer;
  19. Sweet the repose beneath Thy wings o'ershading,
  20. But sweeter still, to wake and find Thee there.
  21. 6So shall it be at last, in that bright morning,
  22. When the soul waketh, and life's shadows flee;
  23. O in that hour, fairer than daylight dawning,
  24. Shall rise the glorious thought I am with Thee.
