ANGEL, king of streaming morn; | |
Cherub, call’d by Heav’n to shine; | |
T’ orient tread the waste forlorn; | |
Guide ætherial, pow’r divine; | |
Thou, Lord of all within! | 5 |
Golden spirit, lamp of day, | |
Host, that dips in blood the plain, | |
Bids the crimson’d mead be gay, | |
Bids the green blood burst the vein; | |
Thou, Lord of all within! | 10 |
Soul, that wraps the globe in light; | |
Spirit, beckoning to arise; | |
Drives the frowning brow of night, | |
Glory bursting o’er the skies; | |
Thou, Lord of all within! | 15 |
