  4. Hymn 229

O Love divine, whose constant beam
Shines on the eyes that will not see,
And waits to bless us while we dream,
Nor leav’st us though we turn from Thee.
Nor bounds, nor clime, nor creed Thou know’st,
Wide as our need Thy favors fall;
The white wings of the Holy Ghost
Stoop unseen o’er the heads of all.

O Truth which sage and prophet saw,
Long sought without, but found within,
The rule of Love beyond all law,
The Life o’ercoming death and sin,
O shine on us with light which glowed
Upon the waiting shepherds’ way,
Who saw the darkness overflowed
With tides of everlasting day.

​

One Misty Morning long ago, in the cold still of dawning the greatest miracle of all was a-borning,
For the stone was rolled away, and the place where He had lain were the angels of that
One Misty Morning when Mary cried, never knowing that so soon all her tears would dry,
And sorrow turn to joy on that morning
For the stone was rolled away and in the place where He had lain were the angels of that
Glory then, and glory now. Everlasting triumphant hour. He is risen today. Celebrate that
One Misty Morning when they came to Rind that the Master was among them, not dead.
He was glorious alive. Jesus was risen.
For the stone was rolled away, and in the place where He had lain were the angels of that
One Misty Morning. There was glory then. Love’s radiant light, proof forever that God isLife.
For He has risen today.
One Misty Morning, Alleluia, Alleluia!
