Words
⤢ Full screenCome, Spirit, source of light,Thy grace is unconfined;Dispel the gloomy shades of night,The darkness of the mind.
Now to our eyes displayThe truth thy words reveal;Cause us to run the heavenly way,Delighting in thy will.
Thy teachings make us knowThe mysteries of thy love,The vanity of things below,The joy of things above.
