O
splendor
of
God’s
glory
bright,
From
light
eternal
bringing
light,
Thou
Light
of
light,
light’s
living
Spring,
True
Day,
all
days
illumining.
Come,
very
Sun
of
Heaven’s
love,
In
lasting
radiance
from
above,
And
pour
the
Holy
Spirit’s
ray
On
all
we
think
or
do
today.
And
now
to
Thee
our
pray’rs
ascend,
O
Father
glorious
without
end;
We
plead
with
Sovereign
Grace
for
pow’r
To
conquer
in
temptation’s
hour.
Confirm
our
will
to
do
the
right,
And
keep
our
hearts
from
envy’s
blight;
Let
faith
her
eager
fires
renew,
And
hate
the
false,
and
love
the
true.
O
joyful
be
the
passing
day
With
thoughts
as
pure
as
morning’s
ray,
With
faith
like
noontide
shining
bright,
Our
souls
unshadowed
by
the
night.
Dawn’s
glory
gilds
the
earth
and
skies,
Let
Him,
our
prefect
Morn,
arise,
The
Word
in
God
the
Father
one,
The
Father
imaged
by
the
Son.
