SUN OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

(Tune:
I Heard The Voice Of Jesus Say #225

O
blessed Sun of Righteousness,
Arise,
spread forth Thy wings,
Dispel
the darkness of my soul,
The
death I feel within!
I try,
but cannot lift myself,
Or
cheer my troubled heart.
Spirit
of God, Jesus reveal,
Fresh
grace to me impart!
The
bones that You have broken, Lord,
The
wounds that You have made,
No hand
but Yours can heal again;
Father,
behold my need!
This
darkness, that o'erwhelms my soul,
Is
caused by my own sin;
The
fault is mine! Purge me with blood,
Restore
and make me clean!
Helpless,
I wait for grace, my God,
In pity
look on me;
Your
covenant remember, Lord,
Revive
and set me free!
O
blessed Sun of Righteousness,
Send
forth the healing ray,
Arise within
my gloomy soul,
Bathe me in light today!
