Christ Is the World's True Light

Author: George W. Briggs Hymnal: Praise for the Lord (Expanded Edition) #83 (1997) Meter: 6.7.6.7.6.6.6.6 Lyrics: 1 Christ is the world's true light, Its captain of salvation, The daystar clear and bright Of ev'ry man and nation; New life, new hope awakes Where'er men own his sway: Freedom her bondage breaks, And night is turned to day. 2 In Christ all races meet, Their ancient feuds forgetting, The whole round world complete, From sunrise to its setting: When Christ is throned as Lord, Men shall forsake their fear, To plowshare beat the sword, To pruning-hook the spear. 3 One Lord, in one great name Unite us all who own Thee, Cast out our pride and shame That hinder to enthrone Thee; The world has waited long, Has travailed long in pain, To heal its ancient wrong, Come, Prince of Peace, and reign.
