10993. Blessed Gospel

1 Like a palace full of windows
Open wide unto the light,
Is the Gospel of salvation,
All its words are pure and right.

Refrain:
Blessèd Gospel, holy Gospel,
Voice of God to help and cheer,
May we find thy precious pages
Growing dearer year by year.

2 As a lamp, its heavenly pages
Shed their glory o’er our way
Unto mortal eyes revealing
Visions clear of endless day. [Refrain]

3 Like a crystal river flowing
From the throne of God above,
To the living, to the dying,
Bringing cooling streams of love. [Refrain]
