The Ejaculation.
I
Immortal Sun of Righteousness arise,With dawning Radiance bless my eager Eyes:
On my benighted Mind Thy Beams display;
Kindle, O kindle there Celestial Day.
II
Bright Source of Blissful Glory, Lord of Light,Chase from my Soul the Horrors of the Night:
Remove the dark Eclipse, the Shades dispel,
With which, encompass'd round (sad Fate!) I dwell.
III
Then I Divine Mysterious Things shall learn,Shall Truth from Error, Good from Ill discern;
I shall my God, I shall my Saviour know,
Whence perfect Joy and Life Eternal flow.
