- O gladsome light,
 Of God the Father’s face,
 The eternal splendour wearing;
 Celestial, holy, blest,
 Our Saviour, Jesus Christ,
 Joyful in Thine appearing.
- Now e’er day fadeth quite,
 We see the evening light,
 Our wonted hymn outpouring;
 Father of might unknown,
 Thee His incarnate Son,
 And Holy Spirit adoring.
- To Thee of right belongs
 All praise of holy songs,
 O Son of God, life giver;
 Thee, therefore, O most high,
 The world doth glorify
 And shall exalt forever.
