O Word im­mor­tal of eter­nal God,
Only be­got­ten of the on­ly source,
For our sal­va­tion stoop­ing to the course
Of hu­man life, and born of Ma­ry’s blood.
In eq­ual ho­nor with the Ho­ly Ghost,
And with th’eter­nal Fa­ther glo­ri­fied.

Sprung from the ev­er vir­gin wo­man­hood
Of her who bare Thee, God im­mut­able,
Incarnate, made as man with man to dwell,
And con­des­cend­ing to the bit­ter rood;
In eq­ual ho­nor with the Holy Ghost,
And with th’eter­nal Fa­ther glo­ri­fied.

Save us, O Christ, our God, for Thou hast died
To save Thy peo­ple to the ut­ter­most,
And dy­ing tramp­lest death in vic­to­ry;
One of the ev­er bless­èd Tri­ni­ty,
In eq­ual ho­nor with the Ho­ly Ghost,
And with th’eter­nal Fa­ther glo­ri­fied.
