Thou, Whose almighty Word
Chaos and darkness heard
And took their flight
Hear us, we humbly pray
And, where the Gospel’s day
Sheds not its glorious ray
Let there be light
Thou, Who didst come to bring
On Thy redeeming wing
Healing and sight
Health to the sick in mind
Sight to the inly blind
O now, to all mankind
Let there be light
Alternate Verses:
Spirit of truth and love
Life giving, holy Dove
Speed forth Thy flight
Move on the water’s face
Bearing the lamp of grace
And, in earth’s darkest place
Let there be light

Blessed and holy Three
Glorious Trinity
Wisdom, love, might
Boundless as ocean’s tide
Rolling in fullest pride
Through the world far and wide
Let there be light
