<p>A glory gilds the sacred page,<br>
Majestic like the sun;<br>
It gives a light to every age;<br>
It gives, but borrows none.</p>
<p>The Spirit breathes upon the Word<br>
And brings the truth to sight;<br>
Precepts and promises afford<br>
A sanctifying light.</p>
<p>The hand that gave it still supplies<br>
The gracious light and heat;<br>
His truths upon the nations rise;<br>
They rise, but never set.</p>
<p>Let everlasting thanks be Thine<br>
For such a bright display.<br>
As makes a world of darkness shine<br>
With beams of heavenly day.</p>
<p>My soul rejoices to pursue<br>
The steps of Him I love,<br>
Till glory breaks upon my view<br>
In brighter worlds above.</p>
