lyrics

O gladsome light, O grace, O grace
Shine your joyful beams on my face
Wrap me now in your warm embrace
O gladsome light, O grace

The heavens declare the glory of God
The skies proclaim the work of His hands
Day after day they pour forth speech
Night after night they reveal knowledge
They have no speech, they use no words

O gladsome light, O grace, O grace
Shine your joyful beams on my face
Wrap me now in your warm embrace
O gladsome light, O grace

No sound is heard from them
Yet their voice goes out into all the earth
Their words to the ends of the world
In the heavens God has pitched a tent for the sun
Just like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber

O gladsome light, O grace, O grace
Shine your joyful beams on my face
Wrap me now in your warm embrace
O gladsome light, O grace

Like a champion rejoicing to run his course.
It rises at one end of the heavens
And makes its circuit to the other
Nothing is deprived of its warmth

O gladsome light, O grace, O grace
Shine your joyful beams on my face
Wrap me now in your warm embrace
O gladsome light, O grace

O gladsome light, O grace, O grace
Shine your joyful beams on my face
Wrap me now in your warm embrace
O gladsome light, O grace

O gladsome light, O grace
