Father and Friend Thy Light { Father and Friend Thy Light by John Bowring Ps 148:13 HESPERUS-Henry Williams Baker Father and Friend, Thy Light (or Father and Friend, Thy Light, Thy Love) } Father and Friend, Thy light, Thy love, Beaming through all Thy works we see; Thy glory gilds the heav'ns above, And all the earth is full of Thee. Thy voice we hear, Thy presence feel, While Thou, too pure for mortal sight, Enwrapt in clouds, invisible, Reignest the Lord of life and light. Thy children shall not faint nor fear, Sustained by this delightful thought; Since Thou, their God, art ev'rywhere, They cannot be where Thou art not.
