Author: Charles E. W. Harvey, 1846-1922 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8317 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Light of the world, come nigh and bless
Thy children here below,
Who in Thy house Thy name confess,
On us Thy grace bestow.
2 Light of the world, we celebrate
Tonight Thy lowly birth,
And teach our little ones of Thee
Who came from Heaven to earth.
3 Light of the world, in manger low
Thou deigned to lay Thy head,
That we in darkest night of sin
Might to Thy light be led.
4 Light of the world, into our hearts
Let Thy full glory shine,
That we may follow now Thy star
Until we reach Thy shrine.
5 Light of the world, we worship Thee,
Our humble gifts we bring;
Accept our sinful hearts, O Lord,
While praise to Thee we sing.
6 Light of the world, when Thou shalt come
Our judge and Lord to be,
May we through Thy dear sacrifice
Forever dwell with Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: EAGLEY
Light Of The World, Come Nigh And Bless
