3 That so, in nature's triple frame,
Each heavenly and each earthly name,
And things in hell's abyss abhorred,
May bend the knee and own him Lord.

4 Yea, Angels tremble when they see
How changed is our humanity;
That flesh hath purged what flesh had stained,
And God, the Flesh of God, hath reigned.

5 Be thou our joy and strong defence,
Who art our future recompense;
So shall the light that springs from thee
Be ours through all eternity.

6. O risen Christ, ascended Lord,
All praise to thee let earth accord,
Who art, while endless ages run,
With Father and with Spirit One.
Amen.

Office Hymn. M.
c. 5th cent. Tr. L. H.

Tu Christe nostrum gaudium.

O CHRIST, our joy, to whom is given
A throne o'er all the thrones of heaven.
I thee, whose hand all things obey,
The world's vain pleasures pass away.

2 So, suppliants here, we seek to win
Thy pardon for thy people's sin,
That, by thine all-prevailing grace
Uplifted, we may seek thy face

3 And when, all heaven beneath thee bowed,
Thou com'st to judgement throned in cloud,
Then from our guilt wash out the stain
And give us our lost crowns again.

4 Be thou our joy and strong defence,
Who art our future recompense:
So shall the light that springs from thee
Be ours through all eternity.

5. O risen Christ, ascended Lord,
All praise to thee let earth accord,
Who art, while endless ages run,
With Father and with Spirit One.
Amen.
