Christ, whose glory fills the sky by David Greenwood — Lyrics
Christ, whose glory fills the skies,
Christ, the true, the only light,
Dayspring from on high, be near;
aystar, in my heart appear.
Till they inward light impart,
Glad my eyes, and warm my heart.
Visit then this soul of mine,
Pierce the gloom of sin and grief;
Fill me, radiacy divine,
Scatter all my unbelief;
More and more thyself display,

About Christ, whose glory fills the sky
David Greenwood sets the well-known Charles Wesley hymn text Christ, whose glory fills the sky for SATB choir. This anthem is in English and belongs to the sacred choral tradition. The text is a prayer for Christ's presence and light to dispel darkness and sin, seeking a personal manifestation of divine radiance. The music aims to capture the hopeful and devotional nature of the words, building towards a sense of ultimate triumph and spiritual clarity, the 'perfect day' of God's presence. It is suitable for choirs looking for a reflective yet uplifting anthem that explores themes of spiritual illumination and redemption.
