|
|
<p>Light of the world, we hail Thee, flushing the eastern skies;<br>
|
|
Never shall darkness veil Thee again from human eyes;<br>
|
|
Too long, alas, withholden, now spread from shore to shore;<br>
|
|
Thy light, so glad and golden, shall set on earth no more.</p>
|
|
<p>Light of the world, Thy beauty steals into every heart,<br>
|
|
And glorifies with duty life’s poorest, humblest, part;<br>
|
|
Thou robest in Thy splendor the simple ways of men,<br>
|
|
And helpest them to render light back to Thee again.</p>
|
|
<p>Light of the world, before Thee our spirits prostrate fall;<br>
|
|
We worship, we adore Thee, Thou Light, the Life of all;<br>
|
|
With Thee is no forgetting of all Thine hand hath made;<br>
|
|
Thy rising hath no setting, Thy sunshine hath no shade.</p>
|
|
<p>Light of the world, illumine this darkened earth of Thine,<br>
|
|
Till everything that’s human be filled with what’s divine;<br>
|
|
Till every tongue and nation, from sin’s dominion free,<br>
|
|
Rise in the new creation which springs from love and Thee.</p>
