Of Eternal Love Begotten

He commanded, it was done: heaven and earth and depths of ocean, in their threefold order one; all that grows beneath the shining, of the moon and burning sun, evermore and evermore. 3 O that birth for ever blessed, when the virgin, full of grace, by the Holy Ghost conceiving, bare the Saviour of our race, and the babe, the world's redeemer, first revealed his sacred face, evermore and evermore. 4 This is he whom seers in old time chanted of with one accord, whom the voices of the prophets promised in their faithful word; now he shines, the long-expected; let creation praise its Lord, evermore and evermore. 5 O ye heights of heaven adore him; angel hosts, his praises sing; all dominions bow before him, and extol our God and king; let no tongue on earth be silent, every voice in concert ring, evermore and evermore. 6 Christ, to thee, with God the Father, and, O Holy Ghost, to thee, hymn and chant and high thanksgiving, and unwearied praises be, honour, glory, and dominion, and eternal victory, evermore and evermore.
