Break, break, eternal day
1Break, break, eternal day, Bid darkness flee away, Pour on our sight, Light from the world of joy, Bliss pure without alloy; Then ne'er shall gloom annoy, All shall be bright.
2Rise, rise, thou glorious sun, Hasten thy race to run; At God's command, Extend thy healing wings, O'er earth's remotest springs, Reign, O thou King of kings, In this dark land.
3Come, come, thou conquering One, Reign thou upon thy throne In glory bright; Then shall the ransomed raise, Unceasing songs of praise, Throughout eternal days, In perfect light.
