Author: Ray Palmer Hymnal: Laudes Domini #77 (1888) First Line: Stealing from the world away Lyrics: 1 Stealing from the world away,
We are come to seek thy face;
Kindly meet us, Lord, we pray,
Grant us thy reviving grace.
2 Yonder stars that gild the sky
Shine but with a borrowed light;
We, unless thy light be nigh,
Wander, wrapt in gloomy night.
3 Sun of Righteousness! dispel
All our darkness, doubts, and fears;
May thy light within us dwell,
Till eternal day appears.
4 Warm our hearts in prayer and praise,
Lift our every thought above;
Hear the grateful songs we raise,
Fill us with thy perfect love. Topics: Christ Sun; Prayer and Invocation Languages: English Tune Title: HALL
Quiet communion
