Author: Godfrey Thring Hymnal: Joyful Lays #116 (1884) Hymnal Title: Joyful Lays Lyrics: 1 Cast away the works of darkness,
Haste to gird your armor on,
Ere the noon hath lost its brightness,
And the evening is begun.
Refrain:
Cast away the works of night,
Walk as children of the light;
Cast away the works of darkness,
Walk as children of the light.
2 Cast away the works of darkness,
Light is dawning from on high;
Christ the Daystar shines above you,
Drives the shadows from the sky. [Refrain]
3 Cast away the works of darkness,
Ere your fleeting breath hath fled;
For again the Lord is coming,
Judge alike of quick and dead. [Refrain] Scripture: Romans 13:12 Languages: English Tune Title: [Cast away the works of darkness]
Cast away the Works of Darkness
