Author: Lawrence Tuttiett Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1833 Meter: 8.6.8.4 First Line: Give light, O Lord, that we may learn Lyrics: 1. Give light, O Lord, that we may learn
The way that leads to Thee,
That where our hearts true joy discern,
Our life may be.
2. Give light, O Lord, that we may know
Thy one unchanging truth,
And follow, all our days below,
Our guide in youth.
3. Give light, O Lord, that we may see
Where wisdom bids beware,
And turn our doubting minds to Thee,
In faithful prayer.
4. Give light, O Lord, that we may look
Beneath, around, above,
And learn from nature’s living book
Thy power and love.
5. Give light, O Lord, that we may read
All signs that Thou art near,
And, while we live, in word and deed
Thy name revere.
6. Give light, O Lord, that we may trace
In trial, pain, and loss
In poorest lot, and lowest place,
A Savior’s cross.
7. Give light, O Lord, that we may see
A home beyond the sky,
Where all who live in Christ with Thee
Shall never die. Languages: English Tune Title: ROTHLEY
Give Light, O Lord
