Thou art, O Christ, the light and life

by Charles H. Rominger

Representative text

As printed in The Church Hymnal (1941), no. 389 — the newest hymnal carrying it.

Verse 1

Thou art, O Christ, the light and life Of all my soul's aspiring hope; Without that life in daily strife I could not dare with sin to cope.

Verse 2

I have not strength to stand alone, When storms of doubt and fears assail; But Thou, yea, Thou, and Thou alone, Must o'er my doubts and fears prevail.

Verse 3

I have not courage to resist, When Satan's hosts attack me sore; I must on Thee alone subsist, Till sin and sorrow reign no more.

Verse 4

And when, in that bright realm above, I see Thee ever face to face, I'll breathe the fragrance of Thy love, I'll sing the wonder of Thy grace.
