rain down your radiance from above,
and to our inward hearts convey
the Holy Spirit’s cloudless ray.

with thoughts as clear as morning’s ray,
with faith like noontide shining bright,
our souls unshadowed by the night.

your image to our heart is born;

our Savior and our God in you. Topics: Celebrating Time; Evening; Faith; Gift of the Holy Spirit; Light; Morning Used With Tune: PUER NOBIS NASCITUR Text Sources: Trans. composite

angel hosts, his praises sing,

and extol our God and King;

every voice in concert ring,

and unwearied praises be:
honor, glory, and dominion,
and eternal victory,
evermore and evermore!
