To Earth Descending, Word Sublime,
Begotten Ere The Days Of Time;
Who Camest A Child, The World To Aid,
As Years Their Downward Course Displayed:
Each Breast Be Lightened From Above,
Each Heart Be Kindled With Thy Love;
That We, Who Hear Thy Call To-Day,
At Length May Cast Earths Joys Away.
That So When Thou, Our Judge, Art Nigh,
All Secret Deeds Of Men To Try,
Shalt Mete To Sin Pangs Rightly Won,
To Just Men Joy For Deeds Well Done
Thy Servants May Not Be Enchained
By Punishment Their Guilt Has Gained,
But With The Blessed Evermore
May Serve And Love Thee, And Adore.
To God The Father, God The Son,
And God The Spirit, Three In One,
Laud, Honour, Might, And Glory Be
From Age To Age Eternally. Amen.
