Christ, the true, the only light,
Sun of Righteousness, arise,
triumph o'er the shades of night;
Dayspring from on high, be near;
Daystar, in my heart appear.
2 Dark and cheerless is the morn
unaccompanied by thee;
joyless is the day's return,
till thy mercy's beams I see,
till they inward light impart,
glad my eyes, and warm my heart.
3 Visit then this soul of mine,
pierce the gloom of sin and grief;
fill me, radiancy divine,
scatter all my unbelief;
more and more thyself display,
shining to the perfect day. Scripture: Psalm 19 Languages: English Tune Title: RATISBON

by thy all-sufficient merit,
raise us to thy glorious throne. Scripture: Haggai 2:7 Languages: English Tune Title: CROSS OF JESUS

stirs on the earth and trembles in the air!

shout to the saints, and to the deaf are dumb;
surely he cometh, and the earth rejoices,
glad in his coming who hath sworn: I come!
3 This hath he done, and shall we not adore him?
This shall he do, and can we still despair?
Come, let us quickly fling ourselves before him,
cast at his feet the burden of our care.

he shall suffice me, for he hath sufficed:

he is your brightest morn,
greet him with joyous eyes,
praise shall his path adorn:
your seers have longed to know their Lord;
to you he comes, the final word.
4 Shores of the utmost West,
lands of the setting sun,
welcome the heavenly guest
in whom the dawn has come:
he brings a never-ending light
who triumphed o'er our darkest night.

from East and West and South:
in Jesus all shall find their rest,
in him the universe be blest. Scripture: Isaiah 49:8-13 Languages: English Tune Title: LITTLE CORNARD

prepare we in our hearts a home,
where such a mighty guest may come.

our refuge and our great reward;
without thy grace we waste away,
like flowers that wither and decay.
4 To heal the sick stretch out thine hand,
and bid the fallen sinner stand;
shine forth, and let thy light restore
earth's own true loveliness once more.

whose advent sets thy people free,
whom with the Father we adore,
and Holy Ghost for evermore. Scripture: Psalm 50:2 Languages: English Tune Title: WINCHESTER NEW

look down on mortal men.
3 Rise, God, judge thou the earth in might,
this wicked earth redress;
for thou art he who shalt by right
the nations all possess.
4 The nations all whom thou hast made
shall come, and all shall frame
to bow them low before thee, Lord,
and glorify thy name.

by thy strong hand are done:
thou in thy everlasting seat
remainest God alone. Scripture: Psalm 82 Languages: English Tune Title: ST STEPHEN (NEWINGTON)
