Hymn of the WeeK: “Christ, Whose Glory Fills the Skies”
Wesley, Gounod

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; Day star, in my heart appear.

Dark and cheerless is the morn unaccompanied by 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.
