This is the day of light

Author: John Ellerton Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 287 hymnals Lyrics: This is the day of light: Let there be light today; O Day-spring, rise upon our night, And chase its gloom away. This is the day of rest: Our failing strength renew; On weary brain and troubled breast Shed thou thy freshening dew. This is the day of peace: Thy peace our spirits fill; Bid thou the blasts of discord cease, The waves of strife be still. This is the day of prayer: Let earth to heaven draw near; Lift up our hearts to seek thee there, Come down to meet us here. This is the first of days: Send forth thy quickening breath, And wake dead souls to love and praise, O Vanquisher of death! Amen.

Revive Thy work, O Lord

Author: Albert Midlane Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 239 hymnals Lyrics: Revive thy work, O Lord, Thy mighty arm make bare; Speak with the voice that wakes the dead And make thy people hear. Revive thy work, O Lord, Disturb this sleep of death; Quicken the smouldering embers now By thine almighty breath. Revive thy work, O Lord, Create soul thirst for thee; And hungering for the Bread of life, O may our spirits be! 412 Revive thy work, O Lord, Exalt thy precious Name; And, by the Holy Ghost, our love For thee and thine inflame. Revive thy work, O Lord, And give refreshing showers; The glory shall be all thine own, The blessing, Lord, be ours. Amen.
