Monsell Hymnal: The Hymnal #422 (1950) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth World Friendship and Peace Lyrics: 1 Light of the world, we hail Thee, Flushing the eastern skies; Never shall darkness veil Thee Again from human eyes; Too long, alas, withholden, Now spread from shore to shore; Thy light, so glad and golden, Shall set on earth no more. 2 Light of the world, Thy beauty Steals into every heart, And glorifies with duty Life's poorest, humblest part; Thou robest in Thy splendor The simple ways of men, And helpest them to render Light back to Thee again. 3 Light of the world, illumine This darkened land of Thine, Till everything that's human Be filled with what's divine; Till every tongue and nation, From sin's dominion free, Rise in the new creation Which springs from love and Thee. Amen. Tune Title: MEIRIONYDD
