As light of day returns once more,
With joyful voices let us sing.
To God of glory infinite,
To Christ our Lord for all his grace.
Through whom the great Creator's will
Called day and night from nothingness,
Appointing them successive law,
Till time itself shall pass away.
True light of every faithful soul
Unfettered by the law of old;
No shades of night can fall that dim
Your dazzling and undying light.
O Father, uncreated Light,
Be with us as the hours go by,
That we may please your Son this day.
Filled with the Holy Spirit's pow'r.
Amen.
