MORNING HYMN
 

AWAKE, MY SOUL,
AND WITH THE SUN,
THY DAILY STAGE
OF DUTY RUN;
SHAKE OFF DULL SLOTH,
THE EARLY RISE;
TO PAY THY MORNING
SACRIFICE.

REEDEM THY MISPENT
MOMENTS PAST,
AND LIVE THIS DAY
AS IF THE LAST;
THY TALENTS TO
IMPROVE TAKE CARE;
FOR THE GREAT DAY
THYSELF PREPARE.

LET ALL THY CONVERSE
BE SINCERE,
THY CONSCIENCE AS THE
NOON-DAY CLEAR;
FOR GOD'S ALL-SEEING
EYE SURVEYS;
THY SECRET THOUGHTS,
THY WORKS AND WAYS.

PRAISE GOD FROM WHOM
ALL BLESSINGS FLOW;
PRAISE HIM ALL
CREATURES HERE BELOW;
PRAISE HIM ABOVE, YE
HEAV'NLY HOST;
PRAISE FATHER, SON,
AND HOLY GHOST.

Comments:

Signed: "T.STEVENS COVENTRY" on back pointed end.

The words of this bookmark are identical to sb1440 but with a different design at the top of the bookmark.
The "T. Stevens, Coventry" logo is woven in the bottom pointed end of the bookmark above, meaning it was introduced later than the sb1440 bookmark, since that one has the logo woven in the top turn-over.
