Lord of all being, throned afar, Thy glory flames from sun and star; Center and light of every sphere, Yet to each loving heart how near. |
| 2 |
Sun of our life, Thy quickening ray Sheds on our path the glow of day; Star of our hope, Thy softened light Cheers the long watches of the night. |
| 3 |
Our midnight is Thy smile withdrawn, Our noontide is Thy gracious dawn, Our rainbow arch Thy mercy's sign; All, save the clouds of sin, are Thine. |
| 4 |
Lord of all life, below, above, Whose light is truth, whose warmth is love, Before Thy ever-blazing throne We ask no luster of our own. |
| 5 |
Grant us Thy truth to make us free, And kindling hearts that burn for Thee, Till all Thy living altars claim One holy light, one heavenly flame. |
