He has given to all the faithful his own self for heavenly food. 3 Rank on rank, the host of heaven stream before him on the way, as the Light of Light, descending from the realms of endless day, comes, the powers of hell to vanquish, clears the gloom of hell away. 4 At his feet the six winged seraph, cherubim with sleepless eye veil their faces to his presence, as with ceaseless voice they cry: “Alleluia, alleluia!
