Verse 1
O Trinity of blessèd light,
O Unity of princely might,
The fiery sun now goes his way;
Shed Thou within our hearts a ray.
Verse 2
To Thee our morning song of praise,
To Thee our evening prayer we raise;
O grant us with Thy saints on high To praise Thee through eternity.
Verse 3
All laud to God the Father be,
All praise, eternal Son, to Thee,
All glory, as is ever meet,
To God the holy Paraclete.
