Thou art love and Thou art light, Lord,
|
|
| 1. | Thou art love and Thou art light, Lord, |
| | In the Son as life Thou art; |
| | Love expressing, light illum'ning, |
| | Thou dost life to us impart. |
| | Thou art love! Thou art light! |
| | In the Son as life Thou art; |
| | Love expressing, light illum'ning |
| | Thou dost life to us impart. |
| 2. | Love bespeaks Thy very being, |
| | What Thou dost is shown by light; |
| | Love is inward, light is outward, |
| | Love accompanies the light. |
| 3. | Love by grace is manifested, |
| | And the light by truth is shown; |
| | By Thy love we may enjoy Thee; |
| | By Thy light Thou, Lord, art known. |
| 4. | Thru Thy love, which led to Calvary, |
| | We receive the life of God; |
| | Light our understanding opens, |
| | That we may apply the blood. |
| 5. | Thru Thy love, as life Thou enter'st |
| | Fellowship with Thee to give; |
| | Thru Thy light we take Thy cleansing |
| | And in fellowship may live. |
| 6. | By the light and blood which cleanses, |
| | The anointing we shall know; |
| | Then the life of love Thine essence, |
| | More and more in us will flow. |
| 7. | By Thy love we are Thy children, |
| | Abba Father calling Thee; |
| | Light disperses all our darkness, |
| | Till, like Him, Thy Son, we see. |
| | O what grace! O what truth! |
| | Love is seen and light is shown! |
| | We would praise Thee never ceasing, |
| | Thou by love and light art known! |
