Lyics

BRIGHT source of everlasting love,

To thee our gifts we bring:

Thou art the great Redeemer, Lord,

The universal King.



What shall we render, bounteous Prince,

For all the good we see;

Alas! the pittance we can give

Extendeth not to thee.



The widow's heart shall sing for joy:

The orphan shall be glad;

And hungering souls shall come to find

In thee, the living bread.



HALLELUJAH.

Praise Christ the Lord, you men of state;

Praise him, you humble poor:

Praise him who makes the generous great,

And gives the liberal more.
