Sunday. |“In Thy Light shall we see light," | Earrty MorninG. | 20 ORN of-morns, and day of days! Beauteous were thy new-born rays} Brighter yet from death’s dark prison CurisT, the Light of lights, is risen. He commanded, and His word Death and the dread chaos heard: O shall we, more deaf than they, In the chains of darkness stay? Nature yet in shadow lies, Let the sons of light arise And prevent the morning rays With sweet canticles of praise. While the dead world sleeps around, Let the sacred temples sound Law, and prophet, and blest psalm Lit with holy light so calm. Unto hearts in slumber weak Let the heavenly trumpet speak; And a newer walk express Their new life to righteousness. Hear us, Lorp, and with us be, O Thou Fount of charity, Thou Who dost the SpiriT give, Bidding the dead letter live. Glory to the FaTueEr, Son, And to Thee, O Hoty Ong, By Whose quickening Breath divine Our dull spirits burn and shine. Amen, “ And GOD said, Let there be light: and there was hig And the evening and the morning were the first day. MorNING, 21 O’ this day, the first of days,: Gop the FATHER’s Name we praise; Who, creation’s Fount and Spring, Did the world from darkness bring. On this day th’ Eternal Son Over death His triumph won; On this day the Sprrir came With His gifts of living flame.
