Hymn/Song Information

Lord of true light we gratefully




Lord of true light,
we gratefully adore Thee
For all Thy gifts
bestowed upon our race:
For saints of old, who made
their vows before Thee,
And told the world
the wonders of Thy grace.


We praise Thee, Lord,
that now the light is falling
Here on Thy servant
in this solemn hour;
Confirm in him
his high and holy calling,
Endue him with Thy wisdom,
love and power.


Be in his mind, the truth
of all his teaching;
Give him the faith that
welcomes all the light;
Till, from the shadows to
Thy presence reaching,
He sees the glory
that shall end our night.


Be in his heart,
the fount of all his loving;
Make him a shepherd,
kind to young and old,
Patient and watchful
when Thy sheep are roving,
Tending with care
the lambs within the fold.


Be in his will, his strength
for self-denial;
Fit him to follow Thee
through pain and loss,
Serving the world,
until through every trial
He learns at length
the triumph of the cross.


For all Thy servants
hear our supplication;
Still give by them the word
that brings release,
Till the glad song is heard
in every nation,
Glory to God on high,
on earth be peace.
