Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #359 (1941) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 First Line: Christ, whose glory fills the skies Lyrics: 1 Christ, whose glory fills the skies,
Thou, the true, the only Light,
Sun of Righteousness, arise,
Triumph o’er the shades of night.
Day-spring from on high, be near;
Day-star, in my heart appear.
2 Dark and cheerless is the morn
Unaccompanied by Thee;
Joyless is the day’s return
Till Thy mercy’s beams I see,
Till they inward light impart,
Glad my eyes, and warm my heart.
3 Visit, then, this soul of mine,
Pierce the gloom of sin and grief;
Fill me, Radiancy Divine,
Scatter all my unbelief.
More and more Thyself display,
Shining to the perfect day.
Amen. Topics: The Redeemer Scripture: Luke 1:78 Languages: English Tune Title: RATISBON
