Hymn to the Creator of Light

Glory be to thee O lord glory be to thee

Creator of the visible light

The sun’s ray the flame of fire

Creator also of the light invisible and intellectual

That which is known of God the light invisible

Glory be to thee O Lord glory be to thee

Creator of the Light

for writings of the law glory be to thee

for oracles of prophets glory be to thee

for melody of psalms glory be to thee

for wisdom of proverbs glory be to thee

experience of histories glory be to thee

a light which never sets

God is the Lord who hath shewed us light

Light who dost my soul enlighten

Sun who all my life dost brighten

Joy the sweetest man e’er knoweth

Fount whence all my being floweth

From thy banquet let me measure
