Anonymous. "Let There be Light. " |
1 On earth was darkness spread, One boundless night; "Let there be light," God said, -- And there was light! 2 There hung a deeper gloom O'er quick and dead, But Jesus burst the tomb, And darkness fled. 3 God by His word arrayed Darkness with light; God by His Son displayed Day without night. 4 For thee, O man, arose Creation's ray; For thee, too, brighter glows Salvation's day. 5 The beams first poured on earth For mortals shone; The light of later birth Immortals own.
