1 Hail, thou Source of every blessing,
sovereign Father of mankind!
Gentiles now, thy grace possessing,
in thy courts admission find.
2 Once far off, but now invited,
we approach thy sacred throne;
in thy covenant united,
reconciled, redeemed, made one.
3 Now revealed to eastern sages,
see the star of mercy shine,
mystery hid in former ages,
mystery great of love divine.
4 Hail, thou universal Saviour!
Gentiles now their offerings bring,
in thy temple seek thy favour,
Jesu Christ, our Lord and King.
