Lyrics
A heavenly splendour from on high
A light too great for mortal eye
Deprives the hunter of his prey
And turns his threatening wrath away
In darkened eyes an inward light
Begins to shine upon his sight
As in his heart he hears the call
To follow and surrender all
The Christ for sinners crucified
Whose risen power he had denied
Now claims this servant for his own
And bids him make the gospel known
The nations listen to his voice
And in the peace of Christ rejoice;
The Church on earth his praises sing
Who led the Gentiles to their King
Blest Paul the covert of the Lord
May heaven's light to us afford
A blindness to the lures of sin
That we with thee a crown may win
To God the Father God the Son
And God the SpiritThree in One
From saints on earth and saints in heaven
Let everlasting praise be given Amen
