A Prayer for the Light of Life O Sun of righteousness, arise, With healing in thy wing! To my diseas'd, my fainting soul, Life and salvation bring. These clouds of pride and sin dispel By thy all-piercing beam; Lighten mine eyes with faith, my heart With holy hope inflame. My mind by thy all-quickning power From low desires set free: Unite my scatter'd thoughts, and fix My love entire on thee. Father, thy long-lost son receive! Saviour, thy purchase own! Blest Comforter, with peace and joy Thy new-made creature crown! Eternal undivided Lord, Co-equal One and Three, On thee all faith, all hope be plac'd, All love be paid to thee.
