Let there be light: thus spake the Word
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Sacred Poems and Hymns #260 (1854) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics:
"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.
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.
Nor we alone; its wakening smiles
Have broke the gloom of pagan sleep;
The Word hath reach'd the utmost isles,
God's Spirit moves upon the deep.
Already from the dust of death,
Man in his Maker's image stands;
Once more inhales immortal breath,
And stretches forth to heaven his hands.
From day to day, before our eyes,
Glows and extends the work begun;
When shall the now creation rise
On every land beneath the sun?
When, in the Sabbath of His love,
Shall God amidst his labours rest;
And, bending from His throne above,
Again pronounce His creatures bless'd?

Let there be light: thus spake the Word
"Let There Be Light," Thus Spake The Word
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #16416 Meter: 8.8.8.8 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?
