At Eventide

O radiant Light, O Sun divine
Of God the Father' deathless face,
O image of the light sublime
That fills the heav'nly dwelling place.

Son of God, source of life,
Praise is your both day and night;
Our happy voice must raise the strain
Of your proclaimed and splendid name.

Lord Jesus Christ, as daylight fades,
As shine the lights of eventide,
We praise the Father with the Son,
The Spirit blest and with them one.

Third century Greek hymn
