Hymn for November 2025

Candle behind bible and heart
Our Hymn for November 2025 is Let there be Light

 

God whose almighty word, chaos and darkness heard
And took their flight;
Hear us we humbly pray, and where the Gospel-day
Sheds not its glorious ray,
Let there be Light.

Saviour who came to bring, on your redeeming wing,
Healing and sight;
Health to the sick in mind, sight to the inly blind,
Now to all humankind
Let there be Light.

Spirit of truth and love, life-giving holy dove,
Speed forth your flight;
Move o’er the water’s face, bearing the lamp of grace,
And in earth’s darkest place,
Let there be light.

Blessed and holy three, glorious Trinity,
Wisdom love, might;
Boundless as ocean’s tide, rolling in fullest pride,
Through the world far and wide
Let there be Light.

 

Written by John Marriott and Thomas Raffles
