1. When sunlight o’er the earth is streaming, 

and glory fills Thy temples here,

we feel Thy love upon us beaming, 

and know, O Lord, that Thou art near.

and hide from us Thy radiant light,

when gloom and threat’ning shades becloud us, 

keep Thou Thy children through the night.

to take the dark’ning clouds away.

With humble hearts we bow before Thee 

and lowly wait the break of day.
