6. O Brightness of th' Immortal Father's face

1 O Brightness of th' Immortal Father's face,
Most holy, heav'n'ly, blest,
Lord Jesus Christ, in Whom His truth and grace
Are visibly expressed.

2 The sun is sinking now, and one by one
The lamps of evening shine:
We hymn the eternal Father, and the Son,
And Holy Ghost divine.

3 Worthy art Thou at all times to receive
Our hallowed praises, Lord;
O Son of God, be Thou, in Whom we live,
Through all the world adored
