Blessed be the sovereign Lord the Father
Whose Son woven out of self same substance
Light as mantle, His Spirit shall persevere;
With one command his kingdom from darkness
Forever apart, his Son shall render
Co-heirs in the light with His sovereign grace.
Salvation thus was become divine theme
Beyond angel’s reach, but for men sublime.
2.
Time unstable as water, make what you will
The Father deigns its passing in his Son,
The form thus its sense unilateral
Dictates all things on the earth and heaven ,-
The Spirit thereby makes his case special.
Beginning and Ending descry the Son:
By Alpha and Omega Time’s pinions,
Form and function well met in Christ Jesus.
