Chorus of Angels: | |
*Strophe* | |
Who is it on His Throne, high-seated, | |
So deep in boundless realms of light, | |
Whose measure, space nor time hath meted, | |
Nor e'en eternity; whose might, | |
Supportless, yet itself maintaineth, | |
Floating on pinions of repose; | |
Who, in His mightiness ordaineth | |
What round and in Him changeless flows | |
And what revolves and what is driven | |
Around Him, centre of His plan; | |
The sun of suns, the spirit-leaven | |
of space; the soul of all we can | |
Conceive, and of the unconceivèd; | |
The heart, the life, the fount, the sea, | |
And source of all things here perceivèd, | |
That from Him spring, that His decree | |
Omnipotent and Mercy flowing | |
And Wisdom from naught did evoke, | |
Ere this full-crownèd palace glowing, | |
The Heaven of Heavens, the darkness broke? | |
Where o'er our eyes our wings extending | |
To veil His dazzling Majesty, | |
'Mid harmonies to Him ascending, | |
We fall before Him tremblingly | |
And kneel, confused, in awe together. | |
Who is it? Name, or picture then | |
His Being with a Seraph's feather. | |
Or is't beyond your tongue and ken? | |
*Antistrophe* | |
'Tis God: Being infinite, eternal, | |
Of everything that being has. | |
Forgive us, O! Thou Power supernal, | |
By all that is and ever was | |
Ne'er fully praised, ne'er to be spoken; | |
Forgive us, nor incensed depart, | |
Since no imagining, tongue nor token | |
Can Thee proclaim. Thou wert, Thou art | |
Fore'er the same. All Angel praising | |
And knowledge is but faint and tame. | |
'Tis but foul sacrilege, their phrasing; | |
For each bears his peculiar name | |
Save Thee. And who can by declaring | |
Reveal Thy name? And who make known | |
Thine oracles? Who is so daring? | |
He who Thou art Thou art alone. | |
Save Thee none knows Thy power transcendent. | |
Who grasps Thy full divinity? | |
Who dares to face Thy Throne resplendent, | |
The fierce glow of eternity? | |
To whom the light of light revealèd? | |
What's hid behind Thy sacred veil, | |
From us Thy Mercy hath concealèd. | |
Such bliss transcends the narrow pale | |
Of our weak might. Our life is waning; | |
But Thine, Lord, shall know endless days. | |
Our being in Thine finds its sustaining! | |
Exalt the Godhead! Sing His praise! | |
*Epode* | |
Holy! holy! once more holy! | |
Three times holy! Honor God! | |
Without Him is nothing holy! | |
Holy is His mighty nod! | |
Strong in mystery He reigneth! | |
His commands our tongues compel | |
To proclaim what He ordaineth, | |
What the faithful Gabriel | |
With his trumpet came expounding. | |
Praise of man to God redounding! | |
All that pleaseth God is well. |
