O Lord of Hosts, All Heaven Possessing (EN 2126)

EN 2126 O Lord of Hosts, All Heaven Possessing

Isa.6.5

Versi Version 1

1

O Lord of hosts, all Heaven possessing,

Behold us from Thy sapphire throne,

In doubt and darkness dimly guessing,

We might Thy glory half have known;

But Thou in Christ hast made us Thine,

And on us all Thy beauties shine.

2

Illumine all, disciples, teachers,

Thy law’s deep wonders to unfold;

With reverent hand let wisdom’s preachers

Bring forth their treasures, new and old;

Let oldest, youngest, find in Thee

Of truth and love the boundless sea.

3

Let faith still light the lamp of science,

And knowledge pass from truth to truth,

And wisdom, in its full reliance,

Renew the primal awe of youth;

So holier, wiser, may we grow,

As time’s swift currents onward flow.

4

Bind Thou our life in fullest union

With all Thy saints from sin set free;

Uphold us in that blest communion

Of all Thy saints on earth with Thee;

Keep Thou our souls, or there, or here,

In mightiest love, that casts out fear.
