O what light and glory
Deck thee, all resplendent,
Thou of royal David
Glorious descendant;
Mary ever-virgin,
Who in heav'n art dwelling,
All the choirs of angels
Evermore excelling!
Mother, yet the honor
Of a virgin bearing,
For the Lord of angels
Dwelling pure preparing;
Him within thy bosom
Chastely thou enshrinest;
Thus our God incarnate
Takes His flesh divinest.
Whom the whole creation
Evermore adoreth,
And all lowly bending
Rightly now imploreth,
May His pity grant us,
Far our darkness sending
With thee in His glory
Joy and light unending!
Hear us, holy Father,
Through Thy Son supernal,
With the Holy Spirit,
God and Lord eternal;
Who with Thee in glory
Liveth and abideth,
Who the world and all things
Governeth and guideth.
