Full Lyrics
VERSE 1
O gladsome light, O grace
Of God the Father's face,
Th'eternal splendour wearing:
Celestial holy, blest,
Our Saviour Jesus Christ,
Joyful in thine appearing.
VERSE 2
Now ere day fadeth quite,
We see the evening light,
Our wonted hymn outpouring
Father of might unknown,
Thee, His incarnate Son,
And Holy Spirit adoring.
VERSE 3
To thee of right belongs
All praise of holy songs,
O Son of God, Lifegiver,
Thee, Therefore, O Most High,
The world doth glorify,
And shall exalt for ever.
Amen.
