Christ, whose glory fills the skies Christ, the true, the only Light Sun of Righteousness, arise Triumph o’er the shades of night Dayspring from on high, be near Daystar, in my heart appear Dark and cheerless is the morn Were it ever without thee Joyless is the day’s return Till thy mercy’s beams I see Till they inward light impart Glad my eyes, and warm my heart Visit then this soul of mine Pierce the gloom of sin and grief Fill me, radiancy divine Scatter all my unbelief More and more thyself display Shining to the perfect day Dayspring from on high, be near Daystar, in my heart appear

Praise my soul, the King of heaven To His feet thy tribute bring; Ransomed, healed, restored, forgiven, Evermore His praises sing: Alleluia, alleluia! Praise the everlasting King. Praise Him for His grace and favor To His people in distress; Praise Him still the same as ever, Slow to chide to swift to bless. Alleluia, alleluia! Glorious in His faithfulness. Alleluia, alleluia! Glorious in His faithfulness. Father-like He tends and spares us; Well our feeble frame He knows; In His hand He gently bears us, Rescues us from all our foes. Alleluia, alleluia! Widely yet His mercy flows. Alleluia, alleluia! Widely yet His mercy flows. Angels, help us to adore Him; Ye behold Him face to face; Sun and moon, bow down before Him, dwellers all in time and space. Alleluia, alleluia! Praise with us the God of grace. Alleluia, alleluia! Praise with us the God of grace.

Let all mortal flesh keep silence, And with fear and trembling stand; Ponder nothing earthly minded, For with blessing in His hand, Christ our God to earth descendeth, Our full homage to demand. King of kings, yet born of Mary, As of old on earth He stood, Lord of lords, in human vesture, In the body and the blood; He will give to all the faithful His own self for heavenly food. Rank on rank the host of heaven Spreads its vanguard on the way, As the Light of light descendeth From the realms of endless day, That the powers of hell may vanish As the darkness clears away. Alleluia, Lord Most High At His feet the six winged seraph, Cherubim with sleepless eye, Veil their faces to the presence, As with ceaseless voice they cry:
4.
Jesus, Lord of life and glory, Bend from Heav’n Thy gracious ear; While our waiting souls adore Thee, Friend of helpless sinners, hear: By Thy mercy, O deliver us, good Lord. From the depth of nature’s blindness, From the hardening power of sin, From all malice and unkindness, From the pride that lurks within: By Thy mercy, O deliver us, good Lord, good Lord. When the world around is smiling, In the time of wealth and ease, Earthly joys our hearts beguiling, In the day of health and peace, By Thy mercy, O deliver us, good Lord, good Lord. In the solemn hour of dying, In the awful judgment day, May our souls, on Thee relying, Find Thee still our Rock and Stay: By Thy mercy, O deliver us, good Lord, good Lord.

Veiled in darkness Judah lay, Waiting for the promised day, While across the shadowy night Streamed a flood of glorious light, Heav’nly voices chanting then, “Peace on earth, good will to men.” “Peace on earth, good will to men.” Still the earth in darkness lies. Up from death’s dark vale arise Voices of a world in grief, Prayers of those who seek relief: Now our darkness pierce again, “Peace on earth, good will to men.” “Peace on earth, good will to men.” Light of light, we humbly pray, Shine upon Thy world today; Break the gloom of our dark night, Fill our souls with love and light, Send Thy blessed Word again, “Peace on earth, good will to men.” “Peace on earth, good will to men.”

Marvelous grace of our loving Lord, Grace that exceeds our sin and our guilt! Yonder on Calvary’s mount outpoured, There where the blood of the Lamb was spilled. Sin and despair, like the sea waves cold, Threaten the soul with infinite loss; Grace that is greater, yes, grace untold, Points to the refuge, the mighty cross. Son of God, our King Bore the shame of sin Where O death, is your sting? He is risen! Dark is the stain that we cannot hide. What can we do to wash it away? Look! There is flowing a crimson tide, Brighter than snow you may be today. Son of God, our King Bore the shame of sin Where O death, is your sting? He is risen! Marvelous, infinite, matchless grace, Freely bestowed on all who believe! You that are longing to see His face, Will you this moment His grace receive? Son of God, our King Bore the shame of sin Where O death, is your sting? He is risen!
7.
He ever loves us in our brokenness Weeps for every grief we face Intercedes for us without ceasing And bids us to receive His grace And bids us to receive His grace His love protects us through the dark night Never leaves us in our pain Shelters us with His presence In weakness, He perfects His strength He ever loves us in our brokenness In the cross he hides our shame Forsaken by the Father He died for us, He took our place
8.
Let thy Blood in mercy poured Let thy gracious Body broken Be to me, O gracious Lord of thy boundless love The token Thou didst die that I might live Blessed Lord, thou cam’st to save me All that love of God could give Jesus by his sorrows Gave me Thou didst give myself for me Now I give myself to thee By the thorns that crowned thy brow By the spear-wound and the nailing By the pain and death I now claim O Christ Thy love unfailing Thou didst give myself for me Now I give myself to thee Wilt thou own the gift I bring? All my penitence I give thee Thou art my exalted King of thy matchless love Forgive me Thou didst give myself for me Now I give myself to thee
9.
I see, I feel the sting of death I cannot trust my righteousness Now frightened, weakened by the law What po’er undoes this mortal flaw? Grace has found a way Grace has found a way Once all I sought was but to climb Religious ladders in my mind But there my God was never found He had descended to the ground To wash my dirty feet Grace has found a way Grace has found a way Grace has found a way In Jesus When sinking down into despair The Son of God, I found Him there With sinners He had come to call And I arrived, the worst of all But still He welcomed me Grace has found a way Grace has found a way Grace has found a way In Jesus
10.
All creatures of our God and King, Lift up your voice and with us sing, Alleluia! Alleluia! Thou burning sun with golden beam, Thou silver moon with softer gleam, O praise Him! O praise Him! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Thou rushing wind that art so strong Ye clouds that sail in Heaven along, O praise Him! Alleluia! Thou rushing morn in praise rejoice, Ye lights of evening find a voice, O praise Him! O praise Him! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! All ye ones of tender heart Forgiving others take your part O sing ye! Alleluia! Ye who long pain and sorrow bear, Praise God and on Him cast your care O praise Him! O praise Him! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia! Let all things their Creator bless, And worship Him in humbleness. O praise Him! Alleluia! Praise, praise the Father, praise the Son And praise the Spirit, Three in One O praise Him! O praise Him! Alleluia! Alleluia! Alleluia!
