#345Christ Is the World's True Light
Hymn Display
1
Christ is the world's true light, Its captain of salvation, The day-star clear and bright Of every man and nation; New life, new hope awakes Wher'er men own His sway; Freedom her bondage breaks, And night is turned to day.
2
In Christ all races meet, Their ancient feuds forgetting, The whole round world complete, From sunrise to its setting: When Christ is throned as Lord, Men shall forsake their fear, To plow-share beat the sword, To pruning-hook the spear.
3
One Lord, in one great name Unite us all who own Thee; Cast out our pride and shame That hinder to enthrone Thee; The world has waited long, Has travailed long in pain, To heal its ancient wrong, Come, Prince of Peace, and reign.
