Religion

Thy light and truth forth-sending

by Frances Ridley Havergal 1836–1879

From Loyal Responses

Religion

Thy light and truth forth-sending
From Thy own radiant side,
Be Thou our Guard and Guide !

On Thee alone depending,
No darkness can affright ;

Thy shield of Truth and Light,
Clear-flashing through the night,
Is all-defending.
