O Light That Knew No Dawn
Author: Gregory of Nazianzus, 325-390; John Brownlie, 1859-1925 Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 9 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 Lyrics: 1 O Light that knew no dawn,
that shines to endless day,
all things in earth and heav'n
are lustered by thy ray;
no eye can to thy throne ascend,
nor mind thy brightness comprehend.
2 Thy grace, O Father, give,
that I may serve in fear;
above all boons, I pray,
grant me thy voice to hear;
from sin thy child in mercy free,
and let me dwell in light with thee:
3 That, cleansed from stain of sin,
I may meet homage give,
and, pure in heart, behold
thy beauty while I live;
clean hands in holy worship raise,
and thee, O Christ my Savior, praise.
4 In supplication meek
to thee I bend the knee;
O Christ, when thou shalt come,
in love remember me,
and in thy kingdom, by thy grace,
grant me a humble servant's place.
5 Thy grace, O Father, give,
I humbly thee implore;
and let thy mercy bless
thy servant more and more.
All grace and glory be to thee,
from age to age eternally. Topics: God; God Incomprehensibility; God Infinity and Eternity of; Humility; Light; Sanctification; Servants of Christ or God; Supplications For Mercy Scripture: Psalm 24:4-5 Used With Tune: WAVERTON

O Thou That Hearest Prayer
Author: John Burton, Jr. Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 229 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1. O Thou that hearest prayer,
Attend our humble cry,
And let Thy servants share
Thy blessing from on high:
We plead the promise of Thy Word;
Grant us Thy Holy Spirit, Lord.
2. If earthly parents hear
Their children when they cry,
If they, with love sincere,
Their children’s wants supply,
Much more wilt Thou Thy love display,
And answer when Thy children pray.
3. Our heavenly Father, Thou!
We, children of Thy grace!
O let Thy Spirit now
Descend, and fill the place;
That all may feel the heavenly flame,
And all unite to praise Thy name.
4. O may that sacred fire,
Descending from above,
Our quickened hearts inspire
With fervent zeal and love,
Enlighten our beclouded eyes,
And teach our earth-bound souls to rise.
5. And send Thy Spirit down
On all the nations, Lord,
With great success to crown
The preaching of Thy Word;
Till heathen lands shall own Thy sway,
And cast their idol-gods away.
6. Then shall Thy kingdom come
Among our fallen race,
And the whole earth become
The temple of Thy grace;
Whence pure devotion shall ascend
And songs of praise, till time shall end. Used With Tune: WAVERTON
