{{Vs|1}} O God the Son eternal, thy dread might | |||
Sent forth Saint Michael and the hosts of heaven, | |||
And from the realms of light, | |||
Cast down in burning fight | |||
Satan's rebellious hosts, to darkness given. | |||
{{ | {{Vs|2}} Thine angels, Lord, we bless with thankful lays, | ||
Dwelling with thee above yon depths of sky; | |||
Who, 'mid thy glory's blaze, | |||
Heaven's ceaseless anthems raise, | |||
And gird thy throne in faithful ministry. | |||
{{Vs|3}} We celebrate their love, whose viewless wing | |||
Hath left for us so oft their mansion high, | |||
The mercies of their King | |||
To mortal saints to bring, | |||
Or guard the couch of slumbering infancy. | |||
{{mdl}} | |||
{{Vs|4}} But thee, the first and last, we glorify, | |||
Who, when thy world was sunk in death and sin, | |||
Not with thine hierarchy, | |||
The armies of the sky, | |||
But didst with thine own arm the battle win. | |||
{{Vs|5}} Therefore with angels and archangels we | |||
To thy dear love our thankful chorus raise, | |||
And tune our songs to thee, | |||
Who art, and art to be; | |||
And, endless as thy mercies, sound thy praise. | |||
