As Light, O Christ (EN 4339)

EN 4339 As Light, O Christ

John.12.46

Versi Version 1

As light, O Christ, Thou cam’st to earth;

In Thee I live, in Thee I shall arise;

Thou art my joy, Thou my new birth,

To blessed life Thou openest mine eyes.

For me Thou to the cross didst go,

For me Thou gav’st Thy blood to flow.

For me, in dark Gethsemane

Alone Thou, Christ, with sin and death didst fight;

Alone with God didst plead for me,

That I in Thee might see the blessed light.

From all my heart, while I may live,

Eternal thanks to Thee I’ll give.
