1. Of the Father's love begotten,
ere the world from chaos rose.
He is Alpha; from that Fountain
all that is and hath been flows;
He is Omega, of all things
yet to come the mystic Close.
In saecula saeculorum.
2. This is He whom seer and sibyl
sang in ages long gone by;
This is He of old revealed
in the page of prophecy;
Lo! Hecomes, the promised Savior;
Let the world His praises cry!
In saecula saeculorum.
3. Sing we now the works sure proven,
wrought of God in mystic wise;
Heav'n is witness; earth confesses
how she saw with wond'ring eyes
God himself with mortals mingling,
man to teach in human guise.
In saecula saeculorum.
4. O how blest that wondrous birthday,
when the Maid the curse retrieved,
Brought to birth mankind's salvation,
by the Holy Ghost conceived;
And the sacred Babe, Redeemer
of the world, her arms received;
In saecula saeculorum.
5. Sing, ye heights of heav'n, His praises;
angels and archangels, sing!
Where so e'er ye be, ye faithful,
let your joyous anthems ring,
Ev'ry tongue His name confessing,
countless voices answering.
In saecula saeculorum.
