GOD WHOSE ALMIGHTY WORD

God whose almighty word\nChaos and darkness heard\nAnd took their flight:\nHear us, we humbly pray,\nAnd where the gospel day\nSheds not its glorious ray,\nLet there be light.\n2. Saviour, who came to bring\nOn your redeeming wing\nHealing and sight,\nHealth to the sick in mind,\nSight to the inly blind.\nO now to all mankind,\nLet there be light.\n3. Spirit of truth and love,\nLife-giving holy dove,\nSpeed on your flight;\nMove on the waters’ face,\nBearing the lamp of grace,\nAnd in earth’s darkest place,\nLet there be light.\n4. Holy and blessed three,\nGlorious trinity,\nWisdom, love, might,\nBoundless as ocean-tide\nRolling in fullest pride,\nThrough the world, far and wide,\nLet there be light.
