God, Whose Almighty Word

Author: John Marriott, 178-1825 Appears in 452 hymnals Topics: Liturgy of the Hours Hymns for Morning Prayer Lyrics: 1 God, whose almighty word Chaos and darkness heard, And took their flight, Hear us, we humbly pray, And where the Gospel day Sheds not its glorious ray, Let there be light! 2 Savior, who came to give Those who in darkness live Healing and sight, Help those who seek to find, Heal those whose hearts are blind, And in each humble mind Let there be light! 3 Spirit of truth and love, Life giving, holy dove, Speed forth your flight; Move on the water's face, Bearing the lamp of grace, And in earth's darkest place Let there be light! 4 Holy and blessed Three, Glorious Trinity, Wisdom, Love, Might; Boundless as ocean's tide Rolling in fullest pride, Through the earth far and wide Let there be light!

Melt the clouds of sin and sadness; Drive the dark of doubt away; Giver of immortal gladness, Fill us with the light of day! 2 All your works with joy surround you, Earth and heav'n reflect your rays, Stars and angels sing around you, Center of unbroken praise; Field and forest, vale and mountain, Flowery meadow, flashing sea, Chanting bird and flowing fountain, Praising you eternally! 3 Always giving and forgiving, Ever blessing, ever blest, Well-spring of the joy of living, Ocean depth of happy rest! God Creator, Christ Redeemer, Let your light upon us shine; Teach us how to love each other, Lift us to the joy divine. 4 Mortals join the mighty chorus, Which the morning stars began; God's own love is reigning o’er us, Joining people hand in hand. Ever singing, march we onward, Victors in the midst of strife; Joyful music leads us sunward In the triumph song of life. Used With Tune: HYMN TO JOY
