O Light, O Word, O Flesh
- O Light, O Word, O Flesh,
In Jesu's form combined,
Such loving happiness
And hope in Thee enshrined:
Thy light much too intense,
Thy Word hard to divine
But nothing so immense
As taking flesh like mine. - No darkness now too deep,
Nor thought too frightening,
No climb too hard nor steep,
No sky not brightening:
The sky above Thy Cross
Made Calvary dark as night
But thy mysterious flesh
Rose in eternal light.
