Hymnal: Evangelical Lutheran Hymn-book #100 (1918) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Christ, whose glory fills the skies,
Christ, the true, and 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. Topics: The Redeemer Languages: English
