Light of the angels, Life of the forsaken,
Hope of all living;

lo, all things serve Thee through Thy whole creation:
hear us, Almighty, hear us as we raise Thee,
heart's adoration.

we, too, would praise Thee, giving honor worthy,
now and forever. Topics: Revelation and Adoration Languages: English Tune Title: CHRISTE SANCTORUM
