Author: Rev. Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Hymnal #26 (1950) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Hymnal Title: The Hymnal 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,
Glad 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.
Amen. Topics: Times of Worship Morning; Christ Light, Our; Morning; Processionals; Worship Morning Tune Title: LUX PRIMA
