O Lord, now let Your servant
Depart
in heav’nly peace
For
I have seen the glory
Of
Your redeeming grace
A
light to lead the Gentiles
Unto
Your holy hill
The
glory of Your people,
Your
chosen Israel.
2
Then
grant that I may follow
Your
gleam, O glorious Light
Till
earthly shadows scatter,
And
faith is changed to sight;
Till
raptured saints shall gather
Upon
that shining shore
Where
Christ, the blessed Day star,
Shall
light them evermore.
