Thou art love and Thou art light, Lord

Thou art love and Thou art light, Lord,
  In the Son as life Thou art;
Love expressing, light illum’ning,
  Thou dost life to us impart.

Love bespeaks Thy very being,
  What Thou dost is shown by light;
Love is inward, light is outward,
  Love accompanies the light.

Love by grace is manifested,
  And the light by truth is shown;
By Thy love we may enjoy Thee;
  By Thy light Thou, Lord, art known.

Thru Thy love, which led to Calvary,
  We receive the life of God;
Light our understanding opens,
  That we may apply the blood.

Thru Thy love, as life Thou enter’st
  Fellowship with Thee to give;
Thru Thy light we take Thy cleansing
  And in fellowship may live.

By the light and blood which cleanses,
  The anointing we shall know;
Then the life of love Thine essence,
  More and more in us will flow.

By Thy love we are Thy children,
  Abba Father calling Thee;
Light disperses all our darkness,
  Till, like Him, Thy Son, we see.
