Author: Laurentius Laurenti; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Common Service Book of the Lutheran Church #45 (1917) Tune Key: E Flat Major Lyrics: 1 O Saviour of our race,
Welcome, indeed, Thou art,
Blessèd Redeemer, Fount of grace,
To this my longing heart!
2 Light of the world, abide
Through faith within my heart;
Leave me to seek no other guide,
Nor e’er from Thee depart.
3 Thou art the Life, O Lord,
Sole Light of life Thou art!
Let not Thy glorious rays be poured
In vain on my dark heart.
4 Star of the East, arise!
Drive all my clouds away;
Guide me, till earth’s dim twilight dies
Into the perfect day.
Amen. Topics: The Church Year Epiphany Languages: English Tune Title: VENICE
O Saviour of our race
