1. Christ, whose glory fills the skies, Christ, the true, the only Light Sun of Righteousness, arise Triumph o'er the shades of night; Day-spring from on high, be near, Day-star, in my heart appear. 2. Dark and cheerless is the morn Unaccompanied by Thee Joyless is the day's return. Till thy mercy's beams I see, Till Thou inward light impart, Glad my eyes, and warm my heart 3. Visit then this soul of mine; Pierce the gloom of sin and grief; Fill me, Radiancy divine; Scatter all my unbelief; More and more Thyself display; Shining to the perfect day. Amen.	1.

About The Author
Gounod was born in Paris, the son of a pianist mother and an artist father. His mother was his first piano teacher. Gounod first showed his musical talents under her tutelage. He then entered the Paris Conservatoire, where he studied under Fromental Halévy and Pierre Zimmerman (he later married Anne, Zimmerman's daughter). In 1839 he won the Prix de Rome for his cantata Fernand. In so doing he was following his father: François-Louis Gounod (d. 1823) had won the second Prix de Rome in painting in 1783.[4] During his stay in Italy,[5] Gounod studied the music of Palestrina and other sacred works of the sixteenth century; he never ceased to cherish them. Around 1846-47 he gave serious consideration to joining the priesthood, but he changed his mind before actually taking holy orders, and went back to composition.[6] During that period he was attached to the Church of Foreign Missions in Paris.
