ere the worlds began to be,
Christ is Alpha and Omega,
Christ the source, the ending he,
of the things that are and have been,
and that future years shall see,
evermore and evermore.
2 At his word the worlds were framed.
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 blessèd!
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;
powers, 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 most blessèd,
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. Used With Tune: DIVINUM MYSTERIUM

your rule, O Christ, begin;
break with thine iron rod
the tyrannies of sin,
2 Where is your reign of peace
and purity and love?
When shall all hatred cease,
as in the realms above?
3 When comes the promised time,
the end of strife and war;
when lust, oppression, crime
and greed shall be no more?
4 O Lord our God, arise
and come in your great might!
revive our longing eyes
which languish for your sight.
5 As rebels scorn your name
and wolves devour your fold,
by many deeds of shame
we learn that love grows cold.
6 On nations near or far
thick darkness gathers yet:
arise, O Morning Star,
arise and never set! Used With Tune: ST. CECILIA
Your kingdom come, O God!
