Original text and translations

English text

My soul, thy great Creator praise:
When clothed in his celestial rays,
He in full majesty appears,
And, like a robe, his glory wears.

Speak of the wonders of that love
which Gabriel plays on every chord:
From all below, and all above
loud hallelujahs to the Lord.
