Lo! The Day of Days Is Here

Lo! the day of days is here!

Brightest Sab­bath of the year!

Sing we hymns of glad­dest cheer

Praising Thee

our Fa­ther!

Not of earth

the light

alone;

Not of man

the mu­sic’s tone;

Angels sing around Thy throne

Praising Thee

our Fa­ther!

In that bless­èd light abide

Saints

with Je­sus glo­ri­fied

And the friends we thought had died

Praising Thee

our Fa­ther!

Christ and all dear souls ab­ove

Who in realms im­mor­tal move

Bless with us Thy bound­less love

Praising Thee

our Fa­ther!

So let all our voic­es ring

And the flow­ers their beau­ty bring

To adorn our wor­ship­ing—

Praising Thee

our Fa­ther!

And for­ev­er we con­fess

Thy great love and ho­li­ness

And Thy fade­less glo­ry bless

Praising Thee

our Fa­ther!
