LIGHT
First-born of God, whose whiteness hath been tried
In sev'n-fold fires; hidden in which thy God
Hath ever walked (in sign) close by thy side;
Not one seared spot bears Earth where thou hast trod;
Nor smell of smoke upon thy garments found;
But all the cords which Earth to Darkness bound,
Are, by thy hands, miraculous, unwound!
In sev'n-fold fires; hidden in which thy God
Hath ever walked (in sign) close by thy side;
Not one seared spot bears Earth where thou hast trod;
Nor smell of smoke upon thy garments found;
But all the cords which Earth to Darkness bound,
Are, by thy hands, miraculous, unwound!
