Author: John Marriott Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Appears in 452 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thou, whose almighty word
Chaos and darkness heard,
And took their flight,
Hear us, we humbly pray;
And, where the gospel's day
Sheds not its glorious ray,
Let there be light.
2 Thou, who didst come to bring
On thy redeeming wing Healing and sight,
Health to the sick in mind,
Sight to the inly blind,
O now to all mankind
Let there be light.
3 Spirit of truth and love,
Life-giving, holy Dove,
Speed forth thy flight;
Move o'er the waters' face,
Bearing the lamp of grace,
And in earth's darkest place
Let there be light.
4 Holy and blessed Three,
Glorious Trinity,
Wisdom, Love, Might!
Boundless as ocean's tide,
Rolling in fullest pride
Through the world far and wide
Let there be light.
Amen. Topics: The Church Missions; Holy Spirit Dove; Holy Spirit Illuminator; Holy Trinity; Missions; Supplication For Light Scripture: Genesis 1:3 Used With Tune: DENBIGH
