Tune: St Timothy
('O Holy Ghost, thy people bless')
********
O dawn on us, O heavenly Light
Illuminate our sight
Guard us and guide us, feed us, keep
You take us for your sheep
You who died for us, rose again
The Saviour of all men* {*mankind}
Trusting for our salvation true
We have in you life new
Your promise us to forsake ne'er
But your presence to share
With us through each day and each night
Your glories always bright
Come to they who with heavy load
Do find their hearts bestowed
Your burden light, your yoke easy
Thus may our sure state be
