Peruse the list of all the hymns that are included in the printed "ReClaim Hymnal for Church and Home" (Pew and Spiral Editions)

O One with God the Father


1 O One with God the Father In majesty and might,
The brightness of his glory, Eternal Light of light;
To gloomy haunts of darkness Your rays are streaming down;
The shadows flee before you, The world's true light has come.

2 Yet, Lord, we see but dimly: O heavenly Light, arise;
Dispel these mists that shroud us And hide you from our eyes!
We long to track the footprints Where you yourself have trod;
We long to see the pathway That leads to you, our God.

3 O Jesus, shine around us With radiance of your grace;
O Jesus, turn upon us The brightness of your face.
We need no star to guide us, As on our way we press,
If you will light our pathway,  O Sun of righteousness.
