Stealing from the world away,
We are come to seek thy face;
Kindly meet us, Lord, we pray,
Grant us thy reviving grace.
2 Yonder stars that gild the sky,
Shine but with a borrowed light:
We, unless thy light be nigh,
Wander, wrapt in gloomy night.
3 Sun of Righteousness! dispel
All our darkness, doubts and fears;
