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