1. God and Father, we adore Thee, For the Son, Thine image bright, In whom all Thy holy nature Dawned on our once hopeless night. 2. Far from Thee our footsteps wandered, On dark paths of sin and shame; But our midnight turned to morning, When the Lord of Glory came. 3. Word Incarnate, God revealing, Longed-for while dim ages run, Love Divine, we bow before Thee, Son of God and Son of Man. 4. Let our life be new created, Ever-living Lord, in Thee, Till we wake with Thy pure likeness, When Thy face in heaven we see; 5. Where the saints of all the ages, Where our fathers glorified, Clouds and darkness far beneath them, In unending day abide. 6. God and Father, now we bless Thee, For the Son, Thine image bright, In whom all Thy holy nature Dawns on our adoring sight.
