English.png English text Text: Stanzas 1-2, Christopher Wordsworth (1807-1855), alt.;

stanza 3, Charles P. Price (b. 1920);
stanza 4, Hymnal 1982.
1
O day of radiant gladness,
O day of joy and light,
O balm of care and sadness,
most beautiful, most bright;
this day the high and lowly,
through ages joined in tune,
sing, "Holy, holy, holy,"
to the great God Triune.
2
This day at the creation,
the light frist had its birth;
this day for our salvation
Christ rose from depths of earth;
this day our Lord victorious
the Spirit sent from heaven,
and thus this day most glorious
a triple light was given.
3
This day, God's people meetihg,
his Holy Scripture hear;
his living presence greeting,
through Bread and Wine made near.
We journey on, believing,
renewed with heavenly might,
from grace more grace receiving
on this blest day of light.
4
That light our hope sustaining,
we walk the pilgrim way,
at lenth our rest attaining,
our endless Sabbath day.
We sing to thee our praises,
O Father, Spirit, Son;
the Church her voice upraises
to thee, blest Three in One.
