O Light That Knew No Dawn

  1. O Light that knew no dawn,
    that shines to endless day,
    all things in earth and heav’n
    are lustered by thy ray;
    no eye can to thy throne ascend,
    nor mind thy brightness comprehend.
  2. Thy grace, O Father, give,
    that I may serve in fear;
    above all boons, I pray,
    grant me thy voice to hear;
    from sin thy child in mercy free,
    and let me dwell in light with thee:
  3. That, cleansed from stain of sin,
    I may meet homage give,
    and, pure in heart, behold
    thy beauty while I live;
    clean hands in holy worship raise,
    and thee, O Christ my Savior, praise.
  4. In supplication meek
    to thee I bend the knee;
    O Christ, when thou shalt come,
    in love remember me,
    and in thy kingdom, by thy grace,
    grant me a humble servant’s place.
  5. Thy grace, O Father, give,
    I humbly thee implore;
    and let thy mercy bless
    thy servant more and more.
    All grace and glory be to thee,
    from age to age eternally.
