1 Hail, gladdening Light, of his pure glory poured who is the immortal Father, heavenly, blest, hoIiest of holies, Jesus Christ our Lord. 2 Now we are come to the sun's hour of rest, the lights of evening round us shine, we hymn the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit divine. 3 Worthiest art thou at all times to be sung with undefilèd tongue, Son of our God, giver of life, alone: therefore in all the world thy glories, Lord, they own.
