32. O splendor of God's glory bright

1 O Splendor of God's glory bright,
From light eternal bringing light,
Thou Light of life, light's living Spring,
True Day, all days illumining.

2 Come, very Sun of heaven's love,
In lasting radiance from above,
And pour the Holy Spirit's ray
On all we think or do today.

3 Confirm our will to do the right,
And keep our hearts from envy's blight;
Let faith her eager fires renew,
And hate the false, and love the true.

4 Dawn's glory gilds the earth and skies;
Let Him, our perfect Morn, arise;
The Word in God the Father One,
The Father imaged in the Son.

Amen.
