HYMN 66.

Light of those whose weary dwelling
Borders on the shades of death!
Rise on us, Thyself revealing,
Rise and chase the clouds beneath.

Thou of life and light Creator!
On our deepest darkness rise;
Scatter all the night of nature
Pour the day upon our eyes.

Still we wait for Thine appearing;
Life and joy Thy beams impart;
Chasing all our fears, and cheering
Ev'ry meek and contrite heart.

By Thine all sufficient merit
Ev'ry burden'd soul release;
By the shining of Thy spirit
Guide us into perfect peace.
