Triple beam of glory

Through the darkness poured;

One the Light eternal

In our blessed Lord:

Give us in the morning

Gladness for the day,

All our life adorning,

Chase our night away.

Glory to the Father,

Glory to the Son,

Glory to the Spirit,

Blessed Three in One:

Let Thy beams united,

Brighter than the sun,

Lighten men benighted,

Blessed Three in One.

Men in darkness sitting

Scan the eastern skies;

Glory of the Father,

On their night arise;

Give the morn supernal,

Give the endless day; --

Light of lights, eternal,

Chase their night away.

Hearts are dark with sorrow,

Minds are dull with care;

Clouds of doubt envelop

Mankind everywhere;

Triple beam of gladness,

Through the ages poured,

Give us joy for sadness,-

Shine upon us, Lord.
