Cloud and Pillar of Fire

Hymnal: PHSS1792 #XXXIV (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Long, as the dark'ning cloud abode Lyrics: 1 Long, as the dark'ning cloud abode, So long did ancient Isr'el rest; Nor mov'd they, till the guiding God, In brighter garments stood confest. 2 Father of spirits! light of light! Lift up the cloud, and rend the vail: Shine forth in fire, amid that night, Whose blackness makes the heart to fail. 3 'Tis done! to Christ the power is giv'n His death—it rent the vail away. Our great forerunner enters heav'n, And opes th'eternal gates of day. 4 Nor shall those mists that brood o'er time, Forever blind the mental eye; They backward roll, and light sublime, Beams glory from the God on high. 5 Adoring nations hail his dawn, All kingdoms bless the noontide beam, And light unfolding life's full morn, Is vast creation's deathless theme.
