O brightness of the immortal Father's face

(EVENING HYMN (NEAR). 10.6.10.6)
1.

O brightness of the immortal Father's face,
most holy, heavenly, blest,
Lord Jesus Christ, in whom his truth and grace
are visibly expressed:

2.

The sun is sinking now, and one by one
the lamps of evening shine;
we hymn the eternal Father, and the Son,
and Holy Ghost divine.

3.

Worthy art thou at all times to receive
our hallowed praises, Lord.
O Son of God, be thou, in whom we live,
through all the world adored.

This hymn is in the public domain.

Text as printed in The Hymnal 1982 (Episcopal) (1985).
