EN 5325 O Very God of Very God
1Thess.5.23
Versi Version 1
1
O very God of very God,
And very Light of Light,
Whose feet this earth’s dark valley trod,
That so it might be bright.
2
Our hopes are weak, our fears are strong,
Thick darkness binds our eyes;
Cold is the night, and O, we long
That Thou, our Sun, wouldst rise!
3
And even now, though dull and gray,
The east is brightening fast,
And kindling to the perfect day
That never shall be past.
4
O guide us till our path is done,
And we have reached the shore
Where Thou, our everlasting Sun,
Art shining evermore.
5
We wait in faith, and turn our face
To where the daylight springs,
Till Thou shalt come, our gloom to chase,
With healing in Thy wings.
6
To God the Father power and might
Both now and ever be;
To Him that is the Light of Light,
And Holy Ghost, to Thee.
