1. The light of God rests on the face Of brook and flower and tree, And kindles in our happy hearts, The hope of things to be.
Father, let thy light divine Shine on us we pray; Touch our eyes that we may see; Teach us to obey. Ours the sacred mission is, To bear thy message far; The light of faith is in our hearts, Truth our guiding star.
2. The light of faith abide within The heart of ev’ry child, Like buds that wait for blossoming, It grows with radiance mild.
Father, let thy light divine Shine on us we pray; Touch our eyes that we may see; Teach us to obey. Ours the sacred mission is, To bear thy message far; The light of faith is in our hearts, Truth our guiding star.
3. Today Thine unseen purposes, By faith’s rare light we feel, Dear Father make us pure in heart, To us thy will reveal.
Father, let thy light divine Shine on us we pray; Touch our eyes that we may see; Teach us to obey. Ours the sacred mission is, To bear thy message far; The light of faith is in our hearts, Truth our guiding star.
