1 Hail, sacred Truth! whose piercing rays
Dispel the shades of night;
Diffusing o’er the mental world
The healing beams of light.
2 Thy Word, O Lord, with friendly aid,
Restores our wand’ring feet,
Converts the sorrows of the mind
To joys divinely sweet.
3 O send Thy light and truth abroad
In all their radiant blaze,
And bid th’admiring world adore
Thy glories of Thy grace.
