Author: Robert Bridges Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #623 (1985) Meter: 6.6.7.6.6.7 First Line: O gladsome light, O grace Lyrics: 1 O gladsome light, O grace
of God the Father’s face,
th'eternal splendor wearing;
celestial, holy, blest,
our Savior Jesus Christ,
joyful in thine appearing.
2 Now, ere day fadeth quite,
we see the evening light,
our wonted hymn outpouring;
Father of might unknown,
thee, his incarnate Son,
and Holy Spirit adoring.
3 To thee of right belongs
all praise of holy songs,
O Son of God, Life-giver;
thee, therefore, O Most High,
the world doth glorify,
and shall exalt forever.
