[There is One, so fair, so bright]

‘Yea, He is altogether lovely.’—
Cant. v. 16.

There is One, so fair, so bright,
So good, so gracious! Love, and Life, and Light,

To be my Hope, my Joy, my Strength, my Song!
Earth's shadow melts in conquering light away
Before the rising Daystar's earliest ray.
