"Let There Be Light," Thus Spake The Word
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 8 hymnals Lyrics:
1 "Let there be light," thus spake the Word;
The Word was God, "and there was light";
Still the creative voice is heard;
A day is born from every night.
2 And every night shall turn to day,
While months, and years, and ages roll;
But we have seen a brighter ray
Dawn on the chaos of the soul.
3 Nor we alone; its wakening smiles
Have broke the gloom of pagan sleep:
The Word hath reached the utmost isles,
God’s Spirit moves upon the deep.
4 Already from the dust of death,
Man in his maker’s image stands;
Once more inhales immortal breath,
And stretches forth to Heav’n his hands.
5 From day to day, before our eyes,
Glows and extends the work begun;
When shall the new creation rise
On every land beneath the sun?
6 When, in the Sabbath of His love,
Shall God amidst His labors rest;
And, bending from His throne above,
Again pronounce His creatures blessed?

"Let There Be Light," Thus Spake The Word
How Many Generations Dead
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: How many generations dead Lyrics:
1 How many generations dead
Dwell in the dust on which we tread!
How many yet may spring to birth,
When we are seen no more on earth!
2 Till, of past, present and to come,
Time shall cast up the destined sum,
And, name by name, through that amount,
Call every soul to strict account.
3 Where’er ensepulchered they lie,
Each then must answer, "Here am I!"
And once, but once, all Adam’s race
Meet for a moment face to face.
4 Then shall the King on either side,
As sheep from goats, the throng divide,
And those to bliss, and these to woe,
Rejoicing or lamenting go.
5 How small to that assembly this!
Yet heirs like them of woe or bliss:
Were the last trumpet now to sound,
With sheep or goats would we be found?
6 "Guilty" we plead, O Judge of all!
Guilty into Thine hands we fall;
The friend of sinners still art Thou;
Save or we perish, save us now!
