The Hymnal

Thou Light of light, light's liv-ing Spring, True Day, all days il- lu - mi - ning: A - MEN.

6 Praise we, with the heavenly host,

Father, Son, and Holy Ghost;
Thee would we with one accord
Praise and magnify, O Lord!

Anon. (Latin). Trans. by "O. B. C." Recast by Earl Nelson, 1864

8 (PALMS OF GLORY) 7.7.7.7.

1 In the morning I will raise

To my God the voice of praise; With His kind protection blest, Sweet and deep has been my rest.

2 In the morning I will pray

For His blessing on the day;
What this day shall be my lot,
Light or darkness, know I not.

3 Should it be with clouds o'ercast,
Clouds of sorrow gathering fast,
Thou, who givest light Divine,
Shine within me, Lord, O shine.

4 Show me, if I tempted be,

How to find all strength in Thee,
And a perfect triumph win
Over every bosom sin.

5 Keep my feet from secret snares,
Keep my eyes, O God, from tears,
Every step Thy grace attend,
And my soul from death defend.

6 Then, when fall the shades of night,
All within shall still be light;
Thou wilt peace around diffuse,
Gently as the evening dews.

Rev. William H. Furness, 1840
