Thou whose almighty word

Thou whose almighty word

Chaos and darkness heard

And took their flight,

Hear us, we humble pray,

And, where the gospel day

Sheds not its glorious ray,

Let there be light.

Thou who didst come to bring,

On thy redeeming wing,

Healing and sight,

Health to the sick in mind,

Sight to the inly blind,

O now to all mankind

Let there be light.

Spirit of truth and love,

Life-giving, holy Dove,

Speed forth thy flight;

Move o’er the water’s face,

Bearing the lamp of grace,

And in earth’s darkest place

Let there be light.

Blessed and holy Three,

Glorious Trinity,

Wisdom, Love, Might,

Boundless as ocean’s tide

Rolling in fullest pride,

Through the world far and wide

Let there be light.
