lyrics

Light of those whose dreary dwelling
Borders on the shades of death
Come and by Thy love's revealing
Dissipate the clouds beneath

The new heav'n and earth's Creator
In our deepest darkness rise
Scatt'ring all the night of nature
Pouring eyesight on our eyes

Still we wait for Thine appearing
Life and joy Thy beams impart
Chasing all our fears and cheering
Ev'ry poor benighted heart

Come and manifest the favor
God hath for our ransomed race
Come Thou universal Savior
Come and bring the gospel grace

By Thine all redeeming merit
Ev'ry burdened soul release
Ev'ry weary wand'ring spirit
Guide into Thy perfect peace

Light of those whose dreary dwelling
Borders on the shades of death
Come and by Thy love's revealing
Dissipate the clouds beneath
