[ocr errors][merged small]

And the bow shall be in the cloud, that I may remember the everlasting covenant.

Gen. ix: 16.

I Lord of all being! throned afar,

Thy glory flames from sun and star;
Center and soul of every sphere,
Yet to each loving heart how near!

2 Sun of our life! Thy quickening ray
Sheds on our path the glow of day;
Star of our hope! Thy softened light
Cheers the long watches of the night.

3 Our midnight is Thy smile withdrawn;
Our noontide is Thy gracious dawn;
Our rainbow arch Thy mercy's sign;
All save the clouds of sin are Thine.

4 Lord of all life! below, above,

Whose light is truth, whose warmth is love,
Before Thy ever-blazing throne

We ask no luster of our own.

5 Grant us Thy truth to make us free,
And kindling hearts that burn for Thee,
Till all Thy living altars claim

One holy light, one heavenly flame.

Dox. II.
