Sun of the soul, O Light divine, Around and in us brightly shine, Your strength in us upwelling. In your radiance Life from heaven Now is given Overflowing, Gift of gifts beyond all knowing. 2 Left to ourselves, we surely stray; Oh, lead us on the narrow way, With wisest counsel guide us; And give us steadfastness that we May follow you forever free, No matter who derides us. Gently heal those Hearts now broken; Give some token You are near us, Whom we trust to light and cheer us. 3 O mighty Rock, O Source of life, Let your good Word in doubt and strife, Be in us strongly burning That we be faithful unto death And live in love and holy faith, From you true wisdom learning. Lord, your mercy On us shower; By your power Christ confessing, We will cherish all your blessing. Used With Tune: WIE SCHÖN LEUCHTET
