Te nostra supplex gloria,<br>
Per cuncta laudet saecula.<br>

Deo Patri sit gloria,<br>
Eiusque soli Filio,<br>
Cum Spiritu Paraclito,<br>

O Trinity, blessed light<br>
And principal Unity,<br>
Now that the fiery sun recedes,<br>
Pour thy light into our hearts.<br>
<br>
Thee we praise with song in the morning,<br>
Thee we beseech in the evening,<br>
Thee let our suppliant glory praise<br>
Through all ages.<br>
<br>
To God the Father be glory,<br>
And to his only Son,<br>
With the Spirit, the Paraclete,<br>
Both now and forever.<br>
<br>
Amen.<br>
