Songs of thankfulness and praise
|
Songs of thankfulness and praise, Jesu, Lord, to thee we raise, Manifested by the star To the sages from afar; Branch of royal David's stem In thy birth at Bethlehem: Anthems be to thee addrest, God in Man made manifest. Manifest at Jordan's stream, Prophet, Priest and King supreme; And at Cana wedding-guest - In thy Godhead manifest, Manifest in power divine, Changing water into wine: Anthems be to thee addrest, God in Man made manifest. Manifest in making whole Palsied limbs and fainting soul; Manifest in valiant fight, Quelling all the devil's might; Manifest in gracious will, Ever bringing good from ill: Anthems be to thee addrest, God in Man made manifest. Sun and moon shall darkened be, Stars shall fall, the heavens shall flee; Christ will then like lightning shine, All will see his glorious sign; All will then the trumpet hear, All will see the Judge appear: Thou by all wilt be confest, God in Man made manifest. Grant us grace to see thee, Lord, Mirrored in thy holy word; May we imitate thee now, And be pure, as pure art thou; That we like to thee may be At thy great Epiphany; And may praise thee, ever blest, God in Man made manifest. |
Gratias cum laudibus tibi, Iesu, ferimus, fecit quem exoticis stella cognitum Magis, rame stirpis regiae luci Bethlehem date, dignus Homo cantibus, Deus idem cognitus. Es Jordani fluctibus Rex Propheta cognitus cognitusque Canicis numinosus nuptiis, esse lympha quem Deum versa testis in merum, dignus Homo cantibus, Deus idem cognitus. Membris atque mentibus confortandis cognitus, cognitusque strenue resistendo Satanae, comiter qui traxeris bona semper e malis, dignus Homo cantibus, Deus idem cognitus. Cum caelorum lumina occulentur omnia, modo, Christe, fulguris signum gentibus dabis: omnes audient tubam, iudex ut fies palam; apparebis omnibus Homo Deus agnitus. In scripturis, Domine, fac te nos discernere, et cum puritate da imitari te tua, Ut, cum sis Epiphanes, simus tui similes sisque nostris laudibus Homo Deus agnitus. |
