Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #516 (1870) Hymnal Title: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) Lyrics: 1 Christ, whose glory fills the skies,
Christ the true, the only light,
Sun of Righteousness, arise,
Triumph o'er the shades of night!
Day-Spring, from on high, be near!
Day-Star, in my heart appear!
2 Dark and cheerless is the morn
Unaccompanied by Thee;
Joyless is the day's return,
Till Thy mercy's beams I see;
Till they inward light impart,
Cheer my eyes and warm my heart.
3 Visit, then, this soul of mine,
Pierce the gloom of sin and grief!
Fill me, Radiancy Divine,
Scatter all my unbelief!
More and more Thyself display,
Shining to the perfect day. Topics: Christ light of the world; Christ the Sun of Righteousness; Light Christ the Light of the world; Morning; Sun of Righteousness; Worship Family Languages: English
