O Light of Life!
O pure Light Divine!
Thou art in us;
Our ember is Thine.
Kindle our faith,
Give hope when we fear,
Deepen our love--
Thy fire appear!
Light of our souls,
Thou spark at our birth--
Grow bright in us,
Shine in all the earth!
O Light of Life!
O true Light of Peace!
Storms will arise,
Let Thy light increase.
Pierce through dark clouds,
Give pause to the proud,
Let Thy shafts fall,
Lift humble heads bowed.
Answer our pleas,
Melt hearts in Thy flame.
Make us as one--
As one in Thy name.
O Light of Life!
O sweet Light of Grace!
Thou bids us come,
We follow apace.
See the bright Tree!
Behold the white fruit!
Feasting we weep,
We witness the root!
O Light of Life!
O dear Light of Love!
Come, wash us clean,
Send forth Thy white Dove!
Fill us with Fire,
Enlighten our eyes;
Help us to love--
'Tis price of the prize.
Then let us come,
Enrobe us in white.
Cleaving to Thee,
Light unto Thy Light.
Light unto Light,
O Light of Life!
Amen.
