All This Night Bright Angels Sing

lyricist: William Austin (?–1633)
Composer: Arthur Sullvivan (1842–1900)

All this night bright an­gels sing

Never was such car­ol­ing

Hark! a voice which loud­ly cries

Mortals

mor­tals

wake and rise.

Lo! to glad­ness turns your sad­ness:

From the earth is ris’n a Son

Shines all night tho’ day be done.

Wake

O earth

wake ev­ery thing

Wake and hear the joy I bring:

Wake and joy; for all this night

Heav’n and ev­ery twink­ling light

All amaz­ing

still stand gaz­ing

Angels

pow’rs and all that be

Wake

and joy this Son to see.

Hail! O Son

O bless­èd Light

Sent in­to this world by night;

Let Thy rays and heav’n­ly pow’rs

Shine in these dark souls of ours.

For most du­ly

Thou art tru­ly

God and Man

we do con­fess:

Hail

O Sun of Right­eous­ness!
