Christ, whose glory fills the skies
Christ, the true, the only light
Sun of Righteousness, arise
Triumph o'er the shades of night
Day-spring from on high, be near
Day-star, in my heart appear
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
Cheer my eyes and warm my heart
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
