Father Of Light, And Life, And Love! Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GHGH IJIJ AKAK

Father of light and life and loveA
Thyself to us revealB
As saints below and saints aboveA
Thy sacred presence feelB
-
Not with the eye of mortal senseC
By angels round the throneD
Or happy souls departed henceC
Art Thou in glory knownD
-
No sun by day no moon by nightE
For this our spirits needF
Who walk by faith and not by sightE
They feel Thee nigh indeedF
-
Light in thy light the blind may seeG
No more by sin estrangedH
Light in the Lord so let us beG
Into thine image changedH
-
Since Thou Thyself dost still displayI
Unto the pure in heartJ
O make us children of the dayI
To know Thee as Thou artJ
-
For Thou art light and life and loveA
And thy redeemed belowK
May see Thee as thy saints aboveA
And know Thee as they knowK
