Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #101 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Christ, whose glory fills the skies,
Christ, 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! Topics: Star Day; Star Day; Christ Glory of; Christ Light; Christ Sun of Righteousness; Day Star ; The Godhead The Son; Light Christ our Languages: English Tune Title: RATISBON
