1. My heart is set to laud the Lord,
1. My heart is set to laud the Lord,
In him to joy, to joy always:

To sing his laud and praise.

1. My heart is set to laud the Lord,
In him to joy always:
My heart doth ever well accord,
To sing his laud and praise.
 
2. Awake, my joy, awake I say,
My lute, my harp and string;
And I myself before the day,
Will rise, rejoice and sing.
