Author: Rev. Godfrey Thring Hymnal: The Hymnal #38 (1950) Meter: 8.8.8.4 Lyrics: 1 The radiant morn hath passed away,
And spent too soon her golden store;
The shadows of departing day
Creep on once more.
2 Our life is but a fading dawn,
Its glorious noon how quickly past!
Lead us, O Christ, when all is gone,
Safe home at last.
3 O by Thy soul-inspiring grace
Uplift our hearts to realms on high!
Help us to look to that bright place
Beyond the sky,
4 Where light and life and joy and peace
In undivided empire reign,
And thronging angels never cease
Their deathless strain;
5 Where saints are clothed in spotless white,
And evening shadows never fall,
Where Thou, eternal Light of light,
Art Lord of all.
Amen. Topics: Times of Worship Evening; Evening hymns; Worship Evening Tune Title: THE RADIANT MORN
