      • "Awake My Soul and with the Sun" is a 17th-century hymn by the Anglican cleric and hymnodist Thomas Ken. It was written in 1695 as a morning hymn and, latterly, it is usually sung to the tune Morning Hymn by François Hippolyte Barthélemon (1741–1808). Occasionally, it is sung to Old Hundredth. Comprising 14 verses, ordinarily only the first and last three verses are sung. In 2002/2003, English composer John Rutter integrated the first and second verse into the Kyrie of his Mass of the Children.
      This hymn was written by Thomas Ken along with "All Praise to Thee, My God, This Night" (an evening hymn) and "My God, I now from Sleep Awake" (a midnight hymn). The three hymns all have the same last verse, which is now known as the Common Doxology.
      The words are:
