1 | Thou art the Sun of righteousness |
| | With healing in Thy wings; |
| The shining of Thy glorious face |
| | To us Thy riches brings. |
2 | The tender mercy of our God |
| | Caused Thee on us to dawn, |
| To those in darkness giving light |
| | That shades of death be gone. |
3 | Thou art the Morning without clouds, |
| | And as the Morning Light; |
| We are the tender grass on earth, |
| | Who in Thy rays delight. |
4 | Thy shining light with pleasant rays |
| | Increases all the way; |
| It shines within us more and more |
| | Until the perfect day. |
5 | It shines thru woe with clearest beams, |
| | As shining after rain; |
| And in Thy mercy with Thy love |
| | Thy shining eer remains. |
6 | Thou also art the Morning Star |
| | To us as a reward; |
| While still tis dark it shines with light |
| | To those who love the Lord. |
7 | Lord, help us eer to love Thy light |
| | And see things from afar; |
| And look for Thee in watch and prayer |
| | As for the Morning Star. |
