God of God

God of God

Placed in the virgin’s womb

So that we might see the face of God

God of God

Come to make an empty tomb

Put on flesh to wield a staff and Rod

Come shed your glory abroad!

God of God

Light of Light eternal

Lo he does not shun the virgin’s womb

Son of the Father, begotten, not created

Oh come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord!

God of God

Come to secure the devil’s doom

And reveal this world’s façade.

God of God

In our hearts make a holy room

Where we may sup with our God

Come shed your glory abroad!

God of God

Light of Light eternal

Lo he does not shun the virgin’s womb

Son of the Father, begotten, not created

Oh come let us adore Him, Christ the Lord!
