Glory be to thee, O lord, glory be to thee
Creator of the visible light
The sun’s ray, the flame of fire;
Creator also of the light invisible and intellectual:
That which is known of God, the light invisible
Glory be to thee, O Lord, glory be to thee
Creator of the Light
For writings of the law, glory be to thee:
For oracles of prophets, glory be to thee:
For melody of psalms, glory be to thee:
For wisdom of proverbs, glory be to thee:
Experience of histories, glory be to thee:
A light which never sets
God is the Lord, who hath shewed us light

Light, who dost my soul enlighten;
Sun, who all my life dost brighten;
Joy, the sweetest man e’er knoweth;
Fount, whence all my being floweth
From thy banquet let me measure
Lord, how vast and deep its treasurer;
Through the gifts thou here dost give us
As thy guest in heaven receive us
