Verse 1:
O splendour of God’s glory bright,
From light eternal bringing light;
O Light of life, light’s living spring,
True day, all days illumining.
Verse 2:
O True Sun, on us Thy glance
Let fall in royal radiance;
The Spirit’s sanctifying beam
Upon our earthly senses stream.
Verse 3:
O Joyful be the passing day
With thoughts as clear as morning’s ray,
With faith like noontide shining bright,
Our souls unshadowed by the night.
Verse 4:
Dawn’s glory gilds the earth and skies;
Let Him, our perfect morn, arise;
The Father’s help His children claim,
And sing the Father’s glorious name.
Amen.
