| 1. O splendour of God’s glory bright,
Who bringest forth the light from light;
O Light of light, light’s fountain-spring;
O Day, our days enlightening;
2. Come, very Sun of truth and love,
Come in Thy radiance from above,
And shed the Holy Spirit’s ray
On all we thing or do to-day.
3. Likewise to Thee our prayers ascend,
Father of glory without end,
Father of sovereign grace, for power
To conquer in temptation’s hour.
4. Teach us to work with all our might;
Beat back the devil’s threatening spite;
Turn all to good that seems most ill;
Help us our calling to fulfil.
5. All praise to God the Father be,
All praise, eternal Son, to thee,
Whom with the Spirit we adore,
For ever and for evermore.
