1. Hail, gladdening Light, of His pure glory poured,
Who is th'immortal Father, heav'nly blest;
Highest and holiest, Jesus Christ, our Lord!
Alleluia! Alleluia!
Now are we come to the sun’s hour of rest;
All times are ordered in Thy word alone,
Therefore the day and night Thy glories own.
1-2
Words: Greek Hymn, Tr. by John Keble / Music by Joseph Barnby

2. The lights of evening now around us shine;
Hail, Gladdening Light
The lights of evening now around us shine;
We hymn Thy blest humanity divine;
Worthiest art Thou at all times to be sung.
Alleluia! Alleluia!
By grateful hearts, with undefiled tongue,
Son of our God, Giver of life alone!
Therefore shall all the worlds Thy glories own.
