Author: H. Baker Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #31 (1920) Hymnal Title: The Church Hymnal Lyrics: 1 On this day, the first of days,
God the Father's Name we praise;
Who, creation's Lord and Spring,
Did the world from darkness bring.
2 On this day, th' Eternal Son
Over death His triumph won;
On this day the Spirit came
With His gifts of living flame.
3 O that fervent love to-day
May in every heart have sway,
Teaching us to praise aright
God, the Source of life and light.
4 Father, Who didst fashion me
Image of Thyself to be,
Fill me with Thy love divine,
Let my every thought be Thine.
5 Thou, Who dost all gifts impart,
Shine, blest Spirit, in my heart;
Best of gifts Thy love bestow;
Make me burn Thy love to know.
6 God, the blessed Three in One,
Dwell within my heart alone;
Thou dost give Thyself to me,
May I give myself to Thee. Topics: The Lord's Day Languages: English Tune Title: LUBECK
