From east the sun, in splendor dressed

Author: B. S. Ingemann; Anon. Hymnal: Wartburg Hymnal #33 (1918) Hymnal Title: Wartburg Hymnal Lyrics: 1 From east the sun, in splendor dressed, Begins his lofty ride, O'er mighty seas and mountain-crest, O'er town and country-side. 2 He rises on that fairest shore Where paradise once lay; Brings light and life, and, as of yore, New joy upon his way. 3 A greeting shimmers in his sphere From Eden's ruddy dawn; Here flowed the Fount of Life, and here The Tree of Life has grown. 4 He greets us with a smile from Him Who caused the light to be, Brings memories sweet of Bethlehem, Of angels' holy glee. 5 We catch a glimpse of Paradise And of its golden groves, When in the east we see arise The sun in heavenly robes. 6 The starry hosts bow gently down Before the rising sun; It seems again in Bethlehem-town Is born th'Eternal One. 7 Thou Sun, all mundane suns above, Be praised that Thou didst rise To lead us in Thy light and love To Heaven's Paradise.
