Lyrics:
Thou Lord of might
Who to Thy tribes, on Sinai’s height
In ancient times didst give the Law
In cloud, and majesty and awe
Rejoice, rejoice, Emmanuel
near us
And wilt hear us
Yea, we can
Yea, we know that thou rejoicest
O'er each work of thine
Thou didst ears and hands and voices
For thy praise design
Didst stoop to redeem a lost race,
Once more to thy creature return,
And reign in thy kingdom of grace.
Appeased by the charms of thy grace
We all shall
of thy tender mercy didst give thine only Son Jesus Christ to suffer death upon the Cross for our redemption; who made there (by his one oblation
Thou who wast rich beyond all splendour
All for love's sake becamest poor
Thrones for a manger didst surrender
Sapphire-paved courts for stable floor
Archbishop: O Lord, Holy Father, who by anointing with Oil didst of old make and consecrate kings, priests, and prophets, to teach and govern thy
Shall come to thee, o Israel
O come, o come, thou lord of might
Who to thy tribes, on Sinai's height
In ancient times didst give the law
In cloud,
Give peace to the world Merciful Lord
Thou, Who didst deign for Thy servants' sake
To become incarnate of a Virgin
That with one voice we may glorify
in the Resurrection of Him Whom thou didst bear.
Khere.
Thou hast come, O loving Mother,
and didst rest upon a tree;
Deign to hear the humble praises,
We, thy children sing to thee.
Deign to hear
How art thou fallen from heaven
O Lucifer son of the morning
How art thou cut down to the ground
Which didst weaken the nations
For thou hast said in
and justice reigns,
Who tears the soul from out its case, And burns away its stains!
Angel:
They sing of thy approaching agony, Which thou so eagerly didst
Before Thee we present
To Thee, before Thy passion
They sang their hymns of praise
To Thee, now high exalted
Our melody we raise
Thou didst accept their
Angel:
It is because
Then thou didst fear, that now thou dost not fear,
Thou hast forestalled the agony, and so
For thee the bitterness of death is
Mary Magdalene:
He stretcheth forth His hand.
Jesus:
O thou of little faith wherefore didst thou doubt?
Mary Magdalene:
The wind ceaseth, and they
(wash away the stain)
My soul looks back to see
The burden Thou didst bear
When hanging on the cursed tree
I know my guilt was there
Not all the blood
distressed soul from death
delivered was by thee:
Thou didst my mourning eyes from tears,
my feet from falling, free.
Eternal Father, who didst all create,
In whom we live, and to whose bosom move,
To all men be thy name known, which is Love,
Till its loud praises
As a misfir'd cannon ball didst
Sinketh mine own boat
And aye sir!
I doth also admiteth
To using h'r well-pound'd flesh
To maketh me a
Handsome waistcoat
A day
and flowers,
And all the flowers were mine.
Ah, dream too bright to last!
Ah, starry hope! that didst arise
But to be overcast!
A voice from out the Future
ray,
Let there be light!
Thou who didst come to bring On thy redeeming wing Healing and sight,
Health to the sick in mind, Sight to the inly blind:
the earth beneath
Who didst from Agamemnon spring
To thee, deprived of vital breath
I these libations bring
Accept them: to thy honored tomb
Never, ah! never
Lord, save me
And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand
And caught him and said unto him
O thou of little faith
Wherefore didst thou doubt
And when
stormy birth from thee
Arise, thou God, and arm thyself against the Sons of our foes in such guise as when thou didst fill Medea's heart with accused
