“A Hymn to the Morning” by Victoria Vakser ’26
O come, all the Offended
Behold the rising sun;
Your darkest times are ended,
A new day has begun.
Come now! the birds are gathered,
Their sweetest songs they sing;
A hymn to their Creator,
To the almighty King.
All creatures now are stirring,
To duties they must run;
Arise, therefore, and come ye,
The Lord’s work must be done.
One day the sun shall shine no more,
The birds shall stop their song,
But Christ, who keeps me in His love,
Shall know where I belong.
So flock to Him! Run to the Light!
Behold the Radiant Son!
Hope for Salvation lies with Him
For each and every one.
