May Thy Face of Shining Splendor
Music for Choirs, Submitted Music (2007-2011)
May Thy face of shining splendor smile on me in darkest hour;
Light my way through all afflictions, beckoning with radiant pow’r.
May Thy hand of kindly guidance take my own as worthy friend;
Lead me through this mortal sojourn; bring me to my journey’s end.
May Thine eyes of gentle goodness look with joy into my own;
Find me singled to Thy glory; bid me come unto Thy throne.
May Thine arms of perfect mercy fold me in divine embrace;
Welcome me into Thy presence, ever to behold Thy face.
