Religious Music - Maker of the Sun and Moon lyrics

rate me

The Maker of the sun and moon

The Maker of our earth

Lo! late in time, a fairer boon

Himself is brought to birth!

How blest was all creation then

When God so gave increase

And Christ, to heal the hearts of men

Brought righteousness and peace!

No star in all the heights of heaven

But burned to see Him go

Yet unto earth alone was given

His human form to know.

His human form, by man denied

Took death for human sin

His endless love, through faith descried

Still lives the world to win.

O perfect love, outpassing sight

O light beyond our ken

Come down through all the world tonight

And heal the hearts of men!
