11. The radiant morn hath passed away

1. The radiant morn hath passed away,
And spent to soon her golden store;
The shadows of departing day
Creep on once more.

2. Our life is but a fading dawn;
Its glorious noon how quickly past:
Lead us, O Christ, when all is gone,
Safe home at last.

3. O by Thy soul-inspiring grace
Uplift our hearts to realms on high;
Help us to look at that bright place
Beyond the sky,

4. Where light, and life, and joy, and peace,
In undivided empire reign,
And thronging angels never cease
Their deathless strain;

5. Where saints are clothed in spotless white,
And evening shadows never fall,
Where Thou, Eternal Light of Light,
Art Lord of all.

Amen.
