This day, at Thy creating word,
First o'er the earth the light was poured;
O Lord, this day upon us shine,
And fill our souls with light divine.
This day the Lord, for sinners slain,
In might victorious rose again:
Lord Jesus, may we raised be
From death of sin to life in Thee.
This day the Holy Spirit came
With fiery tongues of cloven flame:
O Spirit, fill our hearts this day
With grace to hear and grace to pray.
O day of light, and life, and grace!
From earthly toils sweet restingplace!
Thy hallowed hours, blest gift of love,
Give we again to God above!
All praise to God the Father be,
All praise, eternal Son, to Thee,
Whom with the Spirit we adore
For ever and for evermore.
