tr., John Brownlie

6,6,8,6

δεῦτε προσκυνήσωμεν καὶ προσπέσωμεν αὐτῷ

(κοντάκιον)

I

It is a comely thing

To glorify and praise

Our God, the Everlasting Word,

And Lord of endless days.

II

The trembling cherubim

Before Him fold their wings,

And all the heavenly hosts adore

The mighty King of kings.

III

We would our offering give,—

O Christ, to Thee we pray,

For Thou didst break the bands of death

When dawned the glorious day.

IV

To Thee, Thou Three in One,

Ascend our songs divine;

One power, one kingdom without end,

And one dominion Thine.

V

O Christ, the source of light,

With light my soul inspire;

Come, make my heart the bright abode

Of Thy celestial fire.
