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 bless�d Trinity,
In equal honor with the Holy Ghost,
And with th�eternal Father glorified.
