Come into the daylight’s splendor; there with joy thy praises render unto Christ, whose grace unbounded hath this wondrous banquet founded. High o’er all the heavens he reigneth, yet to dwell with thee he deigneth. 2 Sun, who all my life dost brighten; Light, who dost my soul enlighten; Joy, the best that any knoweth; Fount, whence all my being floweth; at thy feet I cry, my Maker, let me be a fit partaker of this blessed food from heaven, for our good, thy glory, given. 3 Jesus, bread of life, I pray thee, let me gladly here obey thee; never to my hurt invited, be thy love with love requited. From this banquet let me measure, Lord, how vast and deep its treasure; through the gifts thou here dost give me, as thy guest in heaven receive me.

Her Star is risen; her Light is come. Ah come, thou blessed One, God's own beloved Son: Alleluia! We follow till the halls we see where thou hast bid us sup with thee. 3. Now let all the heavens adore thee, and saints and angels sing before thee, with harp and cymbal's clearest tone; of one pearl each shining portal, where we are with the choir immortal of angels round thy dazzling throne; nor eye hath seen, nor ear hath yet attained to hear what there is ours; but we rejoice and sing to thee our hymn of joy eternally.
